Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 delicata squash
  • ¼ red onion
  • ¼ cup feta cheese crumbled
  • 1 teaspoon grainy mustard
  • ½ teaspoon honey
  • 6 teaspoon olive oil
  • 3 teaspoon white wine vinegar
  • 2 TBs dukkah spice mix
  • salt
  • black pepper
  • cilantro chopped finely (optional, fresh

Dukkah spice mix:

  • 4 TBs sesame seeds
  • 3 TBs coriander seeds
  • 2 TBs cumin seeds
  • 1 TB black peppercorns
  • ½ cup peanuts roasted
  • 1 teaspoon mint or 1 TB fresh mint, dry, green
  • 1 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. To preapre dukkah, Preheat a pan to medium heat. Roast sesame seeds for 1-2 minutes, until fragrant. Set aside.
  2. Roast coriander & cumin seeds and peppercorns until fragrant. Set aside and let cool.
  3. Once cooled, combine the seeds with the rest of the dukkah ingredients, and mill in a spice grinder or or pulse in a food processor until a coarse mixture develops (take care not to overprocess, or you'll be left with a paste). Pack in a well-sealed jar; dukkah will keep for weeks.
  4. Preheat oven to 325F.
  5. Slice onions into crescent moon shapes. Soak in a bowl with cold water for at least 30 minutes. Drain and set aside.
  6. Slice squash into crescent moons. Arrange squash on baking sheet, topped with 2 teaspoons of oil, salt and pepper. Bake for 30 minutes.
  7. To prepare dressing, in a jar combine mustard, honey, olive oil, white wine vinegar, salt and pepper to taste. Close jar and shake well to emulsify.
  8. Arrange squash on a large serving platter. Top with onions, feta and dressing. Sprinkle dukkah mixture and minced fresh cilantro on top.
