ROAST PUMPKIN NUGGETS & ZESTY DIPPING SAUCE
Serves: 4
Ingredients:
800 g butternut pumpkin, diced into 3-4 cm sized cubes/chunks
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons arrowroot flour
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/2 teaspoon chilli powder
Pink rock salt, to season
ZESTY LIME DIPPING SAUCE
2 large ripe avocados, peeled and seed removed
1/2 cup plain Greek yoghurt or coconut yoghurt
1/2 cup chopped fresh coriander or parsley
2 cloves garlic, minced
Juice and zest of 2 limes
Pink rock salt and pepper, to taste
Method:
2. Add the diced pumpkin to a bowl and coat well with the olive oil. Use your hands to get all-over coverage. Add the arrowroot flour and spices and use your hands to get all-over even coverage on the pumpkin.
3. Lay your pumpkin out on a tray (you may need two), leaving space between each piece so it gets crispy. Transfer to the oven and bake for 30-40 minutes, or until golden brown and crunchy on the outside and cooked through.
4. This is a good time to get onto your zesty lime dipping sauce. Add all ingredients for the zesty lime dipping sauce to a high-powered blender, such as a Vitamix, and blitz until well combined. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
5, Season the roasted pumpkin nuggets with a pinch of salt and serve alongside your zesty lime dipping sauce.
