Method

  1. Preheat the oven to gas 6, 200°C, fan 180°C. Scatter the pumpkin and fennel seeds on a baking tray, season and drizzle over 1 tsp olive oil. Toss to coat, then roast for 5-10 mins until crispy and golden – there will be some popping in the oven as the seeds toast. Set aside to cool.
  2. Meanwhile, put the red onion in a large serving bowl with the apples, mint and chilli. Drizzle over the vinegar and remaining olive oil, toss to coat and season to taste. Scatter over the crispy seeds to serve.

Tip: Use up leftover seeds from your fresh pumpkin – just pat them dry before starting the recipe.
