TIME TO ROAST
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Place the pumpkin pieces on a roasting tray, coat in oil and seasoning. Pop in the hot oven and roast for 25-30 minutes, shifting halfway. In a bowl, coat the drained Chickpeas with oil, the ground cumin, and some seasoning.
PICKLE THE VEGGIES
Place the white wine vinegar, 2 tbsp of water, and 1 tsp of a sweetener of choice in a bowl. Mix until the sweetener is fully dissolved. Add the Cucumber matchsticks and the diced tomatoes. Toss until fully combined and set aside to pickle. Place the pumpkin seeds in a pan over a medium heat. Toast for 3-5 minutes until beginning to pop and turn brown. Remove from the pan.
CRISPY CHICKS
When the pumpkin has 15-20 minutes remaining, remove the tray from the oven and scatter over the dressed Chickpeas. Roast for the remaining time until the pumpkin is cooked through and the chickpeas are crispy.
SIZZLING SIRLOIN
Return the pan to a medium high heat with a drizzle of oil. Pat the steak dry with paper towel. When the pan is hot, sear the steak fat-side down, for 3-5 minutes until crispy. Then, fry for 2-4 minutes per side, or until cooked to your preference (this time frame may depend on the thickness of the steak). During the final 1-2 minutes, baste with a knob of butter (optional) and the rub. Remove from the pan on completion and allow to rest for 5 minutes before slicing. Lightly season the slices.
FINAL TOUCHES
When the Chickpeas and pumpkin are done, place ½ the pumpkin chunks and ¾ the chickpeas in a blender or food processor. Pulse until smooth, adding a drizzle of water or olive oil if it’s too thick for your liking. In the bowl with the pickled veg, add the rinsed salad leaves, seasoning, and a drizzle of olive oil. Toss until fully combined.
