Smoky Kassler & Pumpkin Mash
with NOMU Spanish Rub, a garden salad & honey-mustard dressing

PUMP UP THE PUMPKIN
Boil the kettle. Place a pot over a medium-high heat with 2cm of boiling water covering the base. Once steaming, place the pumpkin pieces in a colander over the pot and cover with a lid. Allow to steam for 15-20 minutes until cooked through and soft. Alternatively, use a steamer if you have one.
DRESSED TO IMPRESS
In a bowl, combine the honey-mustard dressing with 5ml of olive oil. Toss through the halved baby tomatoes, season to taste, and set aside to marinate.
POP THE SEEDS
Place a nonstick pan over a medium heat. When hot, toast the pumpkin seeds for 3-5 minutes until beginning to pop and turn brown. Remove from the pan on completion and set aside to cool.
CRISPY KASSLER
Pat the Pork dry with paper towel. Using a sharp knife, make a few shallow incisions along the fat to prevent the meat from buckling during frying. Return the pan to a medium-high heat. When hot, sear the pork fat-side down for 3-5 minutes until crispy. (It doesn’t need oil, it will render its own fat!) Fry for 3-4 minutes per side until cooked through and glossy. During the final minute, baste with a knob of butter and the Spanish Rub to taste. Remove on completion (leaving the meat juices in the pan) and set aside to rest for 5 minutes before serving.
FINAL TOUCHES
When the pumpkin is cooked, drain and return to the pot. Add a knob of butter or coconut oil (optional), and mash with a fork or potato masher until smooth and combined. If too thick, loosen with a splash of milk or water. Replace the lid and set aside to keep warm until serving. Return the pan to the heat and fry the peas for 2-3 minutes until warmed through and coated. On completion, transfer to a salad bowl. Toss through the rinsed green leaves, Cucumber half-moons, baby tomatoes, and honey-mustard dressing to taste.
