Create a vibrant Spring salad with fresh seasonal produce.
Ingredients:
  • 1 garlic clove, finely chopped
  • 2.50 gm ground cumin
  • 2 small red chillies, finely chopped, plus extra to garnish
  • 82.50 ml rice wine vinegar
  • 16.00 gm brown sugar
  • 40.00 ml kecap manis
  • 56.88 gm olive oil, plus extra to brush
  • 20.00 ml sesame oil
  • 1/2 Jap pumpkin, seeds removed and cut into wedges
  • 500.00 ml coriander leaves
  • Fried Asian shallots, to serve
Instructions:
  • Preheat oven to 180C. Combine garlic, cumin, chillies, vinegar, and sugar in a saucepan. Boil, then simmer for 1 minute. Transfer mixture to a bowl and mix with kecap manis, olive oil, and sesame oil.
  • Place the pumpkin wedges on a lined baking tray, drizzle with olive oil, and season generously. Roast for 10 minutes until nearly cooked. Take out of the oven and generously brush with half of the marinade.
  • Preheat a hot char-grill and grill pumpkin slices for 2-3 minutes on each side until they are lightly charred and tender. Transfer to a serving platter and drizzle with the leftover kecap manis marinade.
  • Sprinkle with fresh coriander, crispy shallots, and extra chili for a flavorful finish.
