How to Make Caramelised Pumpkin Salad With Chilli Jam Juice Dressing

  1. **Make the Dressing:** In a small saucepan, combine 2 tablespoons chili jam, 2 tablespoons lime juice, 1 tablespoon soy sauce, 1 tablespoon brown sugar, and 1/4 cup vegetable stock. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring until the sugar dissolves. Remove from heat and set aside to cool.
  2. **Roast the Pumpkin:** Preheat oven to 200°C (400°F). Toss 500g cubed pumpkin with 1 tablespoon olive oil, salt, and pepper. Roast for 40-45 minutes, or until golden brown and tender.
  3. **Prepare the Salad:** While the pumpkin roasts, prepare your favorite vegetables. Suggestions include: 1 cup chopped bell peppers, 1/2 cup shredded carrots, 1/2 cup chopped cucumber, and 1/4 cup chopped cilantro.
  4. **Assemble the Salad:** In a large bowl, combine the roasted pumpkin and prepared vegetables. Drizzle with the chili jam dressing and gently toss to coat.
  5. **Garnish & Serve:** Add 1-2 tablespoons roasted peanuts and 1-2 thinly sliced fresh chilies (optional) for extra crunch and heat. Serve immediately and enjoy!
