Salt & Pepper
Water
Milk (optional)
Paper Towel
Butter (optional)

Serves 1

OVEN-ROASTED Chicken
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Spread the Chicken pieces and the onion wedges on a roasting tray. Pat the chicken dry with paper towel. Coat in oil, the NOMU rub, and seasoning. Roast in the hot oven until golden, 30-35 minutes.
PUMPKIN MASH
Spread the pumpkin pieces on a separate roasting tray. Coat in oil and season. Roast in the hot oven until golden, 25-30 minutes (shifting halfway). Place the roasted pumpkin in a bowl with a knob of butter (optional) and a splash of water or milk. Mash with a fork and cover.
CAULIFLOWER
In a bowl, toss the cauliflower pieces with a drizzle of oil and seasoning. When the Chicken has 20 minutes remaining, scatter the dressed cauliflower over the tray with the chicken and roast for the remaining time.
TOASTY SEEDS
Place the pumpkin seeds in a saucepan over medium heat. Toast until golden brown, 3-4 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the saucepan and set aside.
HOMEMADE GRAVY
In a small bowl, combine the gravy seasoning with 10ml of cold water to form a slurry. Set aside. Return the saucepan to medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the grated garlic and the rinsed rosemary sprigs until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. Add 150ml of water and bring to a simmer. Stir through the gravy seasoning slurry. Simmer until thickened, 2-3 minutes. Remove from the heat, stir through a knob of butter (optional), and season (if necessary). Remove the rosemary sprigs and discard.
