Total Time 50 minutes

Prep Time 15 minutes

Cook Time 35 minutes

Yield Serves 6-8 as a side dish

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 small butternut squash (about 375g/13oz), peeled and cubed
1 tbsp olive oil
2 tbsp cumin seeds
250g basmati & wild rice
140g dried cranberries
200g pomegranate seeds
100g blanched hazelnuts , toasted and halved
small pack dill , leaves and stalks finely chopped
small pack flat-leaf parsley , leaves and stalks finely chopped
1 large red onion , finely diced
200g feta , to serve
zest and juice 1 large unwaxed orange
4 tbsp clear honey
4-5 tbsp sherry vinegar
4 tbsp olive oil

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7 and line a baking tray with baking parchment. Put the squash on the baking tray, drizzle over the olive oil, scatter on the cumin seeds and season generously – use your hands to ensure each piece is evenly coated with oil and seasoning. Roast for 30-35 mins until the edges are caramelised, then remove from the oven and leave to cool.
  • Meanwhile, bring a large saucepan of water to the boil. Cook the rice for 20-25 mins or according to pack instructions, then strain and rinse well with cold water until all the starch is washed off and the rice is cold. Allow to drain well.
  • Put the cranberries, pomegranate seeds, hazelnuts, herbs, onion and rice in a large bowl and mix well. Make the dressing by combining all the ingredients in a bowl with a generous amount of seasoning to taste. Once the squash is completely cool, gently mix it into the bowl of other ingredients. Pour over the dressing, mix well and serve on a large platter with the feta crumbled over the top.
