Roasted pumpkin and peanut salad

1 servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
2 kilograms Pumpkin - Butternut; Jap, Queensland
; Blue etc.
20 Cloves garlic
1 Spanish onion; minced
1 small Red chillies; minced (1 to 2)
½ cup Fresh herbs of your choice - eg.; parsley, dill,
; coriander, chives or a mixture
2 cups Roasted peanuts
6 tablespoons Olive oil
2 tablespoons Balsamic vinegar
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste

Directions

Peel and cut the pumpkin into large chunks. Toss with 2 tablespoons olive oil and place in a large baking dish with the garlic cloves. Season to taste with salt and pepper to taste and bake at 220c. for about 1 hour or until the pumpkin is tender and golden around the edges. Remove from the oven and keep warm.

Mix the Spanish onion and minced chilli with the fresh herbs and combine with the pumpkin.

Whisk the remaining 4 tablespoons olive oil with the Balsamic vinegar and toss with the pumpkin mixture. Add the peanuts, toss once more and serve.

I like to garnish with some reserved peanuts and whole coriander leaves.
