Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 200 degrees. Peel the pumpkin, cut lengthways, remove the seeds and cut into cubes. Sprinkle with oil, chopped garlic, poppy seeds and sea salt. Place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake at about 180 degrees for about 30-40 minutes, until the pumpkin flesh is almost but not too soft.
  2. Wash the kale thoroughly, chop it up and cut into thin strips. Mix with the lemon juice and a pinch of sea salt and set aside.
  3. For the dressing, mix olive oil, vinegar, maple syrup and mustard, salt if necessary and then pour over the kale.
  4. Take the pumpkin out of the oven and let it cool. Add to the cabbage and mix. Garnish with sliced shallots, cranberries and lemon zest.

About Editorial Staff

The Boss Kitchen editorial staff oversees content review, fact-checking, and recipe verification across the site. Published articles pass through the editorial team before going live, ensuring ingredient lists, techniques, cooking times, and nutritional claims hold up in a home kitchen. The team coordinates contributions across the site writers, handles reader corrections, and maintains consistency in measurement conventions, safety guidance, and dietary labeling. Posts under this byline typically represent team-reviewed reference material, site announcements, or editorial roundups rather than individual-author features, and they are held to the same sourcing standards as bylined recipe and product coverage.
