• Preheat oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced. • Place peeled pumpkin pieces in a baking dish. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat, then roast until just tender, 20-25 minutes.
• Meanwhile, thinly slice cucumber into half-moons. Finely chop garlic. Pick thyme leaves. • Cut haloumi into bite-sized chunks. • In a small bowl, combine garlic, panko breadcrumbs (see ingredients), a pinch of chilli flakes (if using), thyme and a drizzle of olive oil.
• In a medium bowl, combine cream (see ingredients), vegetable stock powder and a pinch of salt and pepper.
• Pour cream mixture over roasted pumpkin, then gently shake the dish to coat. Sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese and chilli-thyme panko mixture. • Bake pumpkin gratin until golden and bubbling, 10-15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, combine cucumber, rocket leaves and a drizzle of vinegar and olive oil in a large bowl. Season to taste. • In a large frying pan, heat a generous drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. • When oil is hot, cook haloumi, tossing occasionally, until golden brown, 2-4 minutes.
• Divide cheesy pumpkin gratin and chilli garlic crumb between plates. • Serve with haloumi and rocket and cucumber salad. Enjoy!
