1
Prepare the Pumpkin
Preheat your grill or oven to high heat. Cut the pumpkin into wedges and brush with olive oil and sprinkle with salt. Grill or roast the pumpkin for about 20-25 minutes, turning occasionally until charred and tender. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
2
Prepare the Yogurt Mixture
In a bowl, combine the strained yogurt, crumbled feta cheese, and finely chopped mint leaves. Mix well until combined. Adjust seasoning with salt if needed.
3
Assemble the Dish
Place the grilled pumpkin on a serving platter. Spread the yogurt mixture over the pumpkin. Drizzle with more olive oil, sprinkle with walnut dukkah, and chili flakes.
4
Garnish and Serve
Garnish with additional mint leaves if desired. Serve warm or at room temperature as a delightful appetizer or side dish.
