Ingredients:
1kg Pumpkin peeled and cut into cubes
2 tablespoons of olive oil
1 tablespoon of ground cumin
200g of green beans topped n tailed, basically ends removed and strings removed I buy string less beans
100g rocket
100 g fetta cheese, cut into small cubes
Salt n pepper
Dressing
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 tablespoon sesame oil
1 tablespoon tamari or light soya sauce
Salt n pepper
Method
Preheat oven 200 °C / 180 °C fan-forced
1) place Pumpkin in a roasting pan, drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with cumin and toss to combine.
Roast for 25 min, turning occasionally until Pumpkin is soft and slightly brown
2) to make dressing , place all ingredients in a bowl or jar and mix or shake
3 ) boil the beans for 3 minutes, drain and place in ice water for 1 minute ( this stops the cooking)
Then drain
4 ) place rocket on a platter or serving bowl. Add and arrange Pumpkin fetta, green beans. Pour over dressing and toss to combine, add salt n pepper to taste
Note:
1. this is a meal in its self or a side dish
2. Tamari is a Japanese type of soya sauce I find it sweeter than soya sauce although Sota sauce is a good substitute. Available from most supermarkets
This is the one I use
