Method
1. Roughly chop the squash or pumpkin into slices, then heat a griddle pan on a high heat. Season vegetables well then griddle, turning over every so often until charred on both sides, before removing to one side on a plate. Repeat with the courgette, then add to the squash and season well.2. Make the dressing by mixing the oil, lemon juice, dijon mustard and chives together in a small bowl. Set aside.
3. Arrange the bitter leaves over 2 plates, then top with the warm squash, courgette, chickpeas, pomegranate seeds and cocktail onions.
4. Top with the capers and feta cheese then finally drizzle over the dressing. Enjoy with crusty bread.
