Instructions
- Prepare the barbecue for direct cooking over medium heat (180°C to 230°C) with a Weber Stainless Steel Grill Pan or Frying Pan to toast the cashews.
- In a large bowl, add the pumpkin slices, chillies and whole garlic clove. Add the olive oil, and season with the salt and pepper. Toss to evenly coat all the ingredients.
- Place the pumpkin slices and whole chillies on the cooking grill, then add the whole garlic clove to the pan. Cook the pumpkin, chillies and garlic over direct medium heat for 6 to 8 minutes per side, or until the pumpkin has caramelised and cooked through, the chillies have blackened, and the garlic clove has caramelised. Once all the ingredients have cooked, remove from the barbecue and set aside.
