Instructions

  1. • Preheat oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced.
    • Place peeled pumpkin pieces on a lined oven
    tray. Drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with garlic &
    herb seasoning and season with salt.
    • Toss to coat, spread out evenly, then roast until
    tender, 20-25 minutes.
    • In the last 5 minutes, remove tray from the oven,
    then add slivered almonds. Return to oven and
    continue roasting until toasted.
  2. • Meanwhile, finely chop garlic. Thinly slice
    radish. Drain and rinse the chickpeas.
    • In a medium bowl, combine shredded cabbage
    mix, radish, a good pinch of sugar and salt and
    a drizzle of white wine vinegar. Set aside to
    pickle.
  3. • When the pumpkin has 10 minutes remaining,
    heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat
    with a drizzle of olive oil.
    • Cook garlic, chermoula spice blend and
    tomato paste until fragrant, 1-2 minutes.
  4. • Add chickpeas, the water, plant-based butter and a pinch of brown sugar and cook until slightly thickened, 3-4 minutes.
  5. • When the pumpkin and almonds are done, add spinach & rocket mix and a drizzle of white wine vinegar to the tray. Toss to combine.
  6. • Divide chermoula chickpeas, nutty pumpkin toss
    and quick-pickled cabbage salad between bowls.
    • Drizzle with garlic dip and tear over coriander
    leaves to serve. Enjoy!
