Roasted pumpkin w/ chilli yoghurt & shallots
A dish of delightfully delicious contradictions
Cold yoghurt and hot food: a match made in culinary heaven. Spicy curries with homemade raita, piping hot, sweet porridge with a dollop of natural yoghurt - there's just something about the juxtaposition of the smooth, cold creaminess with hot, intense flavours that works undeniably well.
That is the secret of this dish. Sweet roast pumpkin, fried chilli and shallot tops with cumin, coriander and cayenne pepper pack a spicy punch while swimming atop clouds of Greek yoghurt.
It's cold, it's hot, it's spicy, it's sweet, it's salty, it's tart. Your tongue will be so assaulted by textures, flavours and temperatures it won't know what's hit it.
It won't mind.
