Cooking Steps
• Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. • Place peeled pumpkin pieces on a lined oven tray. • Sprinkle over garlic & herb seasoning, drizzle with olive oil, season with salt and toss to coat. • Roast on the bottom oven rack until tender, 20-25 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and cover to keep warm.
• While the pumpkin is roasting, pat dry slow-cooked pork belly with paper towel and wipe to remove any excess fat. • Lightly score pork fat in a 1cm criss-cross pattern. Rub over a generous pinch of salt, then cut pork in half. • Place pork, fat-side up, on a foil-lined oven tray. Roast pork for 20-25 minutes on the top oven rack, then turn grill to high. Grill pork until fat is golden and crispy, 15-20 minutes. • Set aside to rest for 10 minutes.
TIP: Keep an eye on your pork. You want it golden and crispy, but not burnt!
• While the pork is roasting, finely chop garlic, parsley and coriander. • Trim green beans. Halve any thick baby broccoli stalks lengthways. • Zest lemon to get a pinch, then slice into wedges.
• In a small bowl, combine coriander, parsley, a pinch of chilli flakes (if using), lemon zest, a good squeeze of lemon juice, a pinch of salt and olive oil (2 tbs for 2 people / 1/4 cup for 4 people). Set aside.
• When the pork has 10 minutes remaining, heat a medium frying pan with drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. Cook green beans and baby broccoli and until tender, 5-6 minutes. • Add garlic and cook until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. Season and toss to combine.
• Slice the pork. Roughly chop roasted almonds. • Divide pumpkin, roasted pork and garlicky greens between plates. • Crumble feta (see ingredients) over the pumpkin and spoon fresh salsa verde over pork. • Garnish with almonds to serve. Enjoy!
