Ingredients

  • 1 butternut squash (approx. 1kg), deseeded and cut into 2 cm (approx.) half-moon slices
  • 4 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tsp ground cumin
  • 2 tsp sumac
  • 1 lemon, juiced
  • 2 tsp red wine vinegar (check for gluten-free)
  • 1 large (or 2 small) radicchio, leaves separated and roughly torn
  • 2 (70g) packs bresaola, slices torn in half
  • 150g blue cheese
  • 50g walnuts, toasted and broken up

Method

  • Step 1

    Preheat the oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas 7. Toss the butternut with 2 tbsp oil, the cumin and sumac; spread out on a large, lined baking tray. Season well, then roast for 30 mins or until the flesh is soft and the edges have started to caramelise. Cool to room temperature.

  • Step 2

    Put the lemon juice, vinegar and some seasoning in a large bowl with the remaining oil; whisk thoroughly until emulsified.

  • Step 3

    When ready to serve, add the radicchio and butternut to the bowl; mix well. Divide between plates or tip onto a platter, then top with the bresaola, cheese and walnuts. The salad is best eaten straight away.
