  1. ROAST

    Preheat the oven to 200°C. Spread the pumpkin pieces on a roasting tray. Coat in oil, the NOMU rub, and seasoning. Roast in the hot oven until golden, 25-30 minutes (shifting halfway).

  2. Quinoa

    Place the rinsed Quinoa in a pot with 150ml of salted water. Cover with a lid and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer until the tails have popped out, 12-15 minutes. Remove from the heat and drain (if necessary). Set aside to steam, about 5 minutes.

  3. TOAST

    Roughly chop the mixed nuts. Place the chopped nuts in a pan over medium heat. Toast until golden brown, 2-4 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan and set aside.

  4. DRESSING

    Return the pan to medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the grated ginger until fragrant, 30-60 seconds. Mix in the sweet soy dressing and remove from the pan. Set aside to cool before mixing with the yoghurt. In a small bowl, combine the dressing, and the coconut yoghurt.

  5. CRISPY Quinoa

    Return the pan to medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry ½ of the cooked Quinoa until crispy, 4-5 minutes (shifting occasionally).

  6. JUST BEFORE SERVING

    In a salad bowl, combine the sliced Cabbage, the grated carrot, the roasted pumpkin, the soft quinoa, the edamame beans, the toasted nuts, a drizzle of olive oil, and seasoning.

  7. DINNER IS READY
