Time 25m

Yield 1 salad, 4-5 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

500 g fresh pumpkin or 500 g butternut squash
500 g kumara (sweet potato)
50 g pine nuts
100 g feta
3 tablespoons light olive oil
1 1/2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
1 tablespoon coarse grain mustard

Steps:

  • Skin pumpkin and kumara. Dice into large cubes and either 1) boil until just cooked, or 2) if you have enough time, roast vegetables until just cooked instead.
  • Toast pine nuts under a broiler (grill) until it smells like popcorn when they'll be just browning. Give them a shuffle every few minutes to keep them turned while they're toasting.
  • Dice feta into smaller cubes.
  • Mix together the oil, balsamic and wholegrain mustard. Toss the pumpkin, kumara, feta and pine nuts with the dressing and serve.
