1

Soak the sorghum in a bowl of water overnight. Drain and rinse.

2

Place it in a pot and top with water. Bring to a boil over a high heat, then reduce the heat to a constant simmer (uncovered) for about 35-45 minutes. Add more water if needed to keep the sorghum covered.

3

Remove from the heat when cooked to your liking. Drain the water, place in a large bowl and refrigerate.

4

Preheat the oven to 220°C, gas mark 7.

5

Place the peeled, deseeded and cubed pumpkin in a large roasting dish and drizzle olive oil over, sprinkle cumin seeds on top and season well. Toss to coat and roast for 40-45 minutes until tender and slightly caramelised. Set aside to cool.

6

In a large serving dish, mix the sorghum, pumpkin, cranberries, pumpkin seeds, parsley and finely sliced onion.

7

To make the dressing, mix the orange zest and juice, fine cinnamon, oil, vinegar and honey in a jug and season well.

Top the salad with the dressing and season well to serve.
