Warm Vegetable Salad with Tabbouleh

Preheat the oven to CircoTherm® 190°C. Place all of the tabbouleh ingredients in a bowl and toss together. Leave to stand so that the flavors infuse while you prepare the vegetables. Place the red onion, sweet potato and cauliflower in a roasting tray. Lightly bash the garlic, in the skin using a wooden spoon, and place the garlic in the tray too. Drizzle on the olive oil and sprinkle on the salt, pepper, paprika and cumin. Toss it all together using your hands, then place in the oven for 10 minutes. After 10 minutes, add the broccoli and toss everything together again. Cook for a further 15 minutes. After 15 minutes add the kale, toss everything together again and place back in the oven for 3-4 minutes with low added steam if available. Meanwhile, make the lemon sumac dressing by mixing all of the dressing ingredients together in a small bowl. Serve the tabbouleh with the roasted vegetables and a sprinkling of feta cheese and pomegranate arils. Serve with the lemon sumac dressing.

Stuffed Butternut Pumpkin With Risotto

Preheat the oven to CircoTherm® 170°C. Line a large baking tray with baking paper. Slice the butternut pumpkin in half, lengthways and discard the seeds. Place the butternut pumpkin halves, cut side down, in the baking tray and roast for 45 minutes. Meanwhile, start on the risotto. Heat the oil and butter in a large frying pan, over a medium heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring often, for about 5 minutes until the onion softens. Add in the garlic, stir and cook for a further minute. Add in the rice and stir until the oil has coated the rice. Add in the wine and stir. Wait for the wine to almost fully absorb (stirring regularly) and then add the stock a ladle at a time - ensuring each ladle has almost fully absorbed before adding the next. Continue to stir regularly. After about 20 minutes, you should have used all of the stock, and the rice should have softened, but still have a slight bite to it. If the rice is still too hard, you can add in a ladle or so of hot water from the kettle and cook for a minute or two longer. Once the risotto is cooked, turn the heat down to very low. Add in the cheddar and stir to melt, then add in the lemon juice, salt, pepper and chestnuts. Give everything a good stir and cook for a further minute or two. Turn off the heat. Remove the pumpkin from the oven and carefully (use a tea towel to protect your hands) scoop out the flesh, leaving a 1-2 cm border all the way around. Stir the pumpkin into the risotto. Line the insides of the pumpkin halves with two-thirds of the kale leaves and spoon the risotto into the two halves. Top one of the halves with the cranberries and walnuts, and the other half with the remaining kale. Put the two halves of the pumpkin carefully back together again, and secure into place using kitchen twine. Do not pull the twine too tight, or it will cut through the pumpkin. Place back on the baking tray and cook on CircoTherm 170°C with low added steam (if available) for a further 15-20 minutes until lightly golden. Serve decorated with fresh herbs, and more cranberries and walnuts if you like.

Cherry Strudel

Cut the frozen cherries into quarters and place half into a small bowl and the remainder into a medium saucepan. Add the water, sugar, cornflour, lemon zest and juice and the spices to the saucepan and mix well to combine. Place over a medium heat, Induction level 6 and cook, stirring constantly until the mixture boils and thickens. Remove from the heat and stir in the remaining cherries, including any juice, then allow the mixture to cool completely. Preheat oven on CircoTherm to 200˚C and select low steam. Place one sheet of pastry onto a board lined with a piece of baking paper. Using the back of a knife mark out the pastry into three equal sections. Place one third of the cooled cherry mixture down the centre third of the pastry leaving a 2cm border at each end of the pastry. Using a sharp knife, cut the pastry on either side of the filling on a 45 degree angle at 1cm intervals from the filling to the edge of the pastry. Starting at one end, fold one strip of pastry over the filling, then fold another strip from the opposite side over the filling. Continue to fold the pastry over the filling alternating from side to side until the filling is enclosed. Pinch each end of the strudel to seal. Brush the strudel with the egg. Repeat to make 3 strudels. Keeping the strudel on the baking paper, transfer two strudels onto the universal pan (trim the baking paper if necessary) and one onto a separate tray. Bake on shelf positions 1 and 3 for 30 to 35 minutes or until golden.
