A delicious way to enjoy hokkaido as roasting brings out the inherent sweetness of pumpkin. It's super-easy to make and tastes very good. You can serve this as a side, scattered with your favourite greens or herbs, or paired with some chickpeas for a meat free meal.

- Wash the hokkaido pumpkin. Cut in half and scoop out the seeds and fibres. Cut each half into 4 or 5 wedges. Preheat oven to 220C/430F.
- Place the pumpkin wedges in a baking pan. Season lightly. Combine maple syrup, olive oil, lemon juice, paprika, garlic and ginger in a bowl. Drizzle over pumpkin wedges. Roast for 30-35 minutes until tender.
- Add the cranberries and pepitas to the pan and roast for a further 5 minutes. Transfer to a serving platter. Scatter over the arugula and parsley.

Angie this looks wonderful! I can just about taste it now. Love the dressing too. I'm ready for baked squash and pumpkin - love this time of year!
Marvelous. Hokkaido pumpkin is not cheap over here, so I'll stick with our local pumpkin for such a gorgeous salad.
What a beautiful recipe and great colors.
Thanks for sharing
oh this looks wonderful!
Ah, pumpkin! This looks delicious, Angie and the colors are great! I love the combo of flavors in this. Thanks!
LOVE this salad Angie! I love roasted veggies, especially pumpkin! Perfect with the sweet cranberries and crunchy pepitas! :)
What a gorgeous, autumnal salad, Angie!
Well it is officially the beginning of fall when you start posting hokkaido recipes lol! Looks like a stunner and so vibrant.
Ahh I am so excited for all the fall flavors I am starting to see! This salad sounds so so good! Making me hungry for dinner! lol
Absolutely beautiful! This is just my type of dish.
I've never had a Hokkaido pumpkin. Could I make this with other kinds of squash?
@Jeff Sure. Butternut or kent pumpkin would be just as great.
Colourful Salad.. So hearty and Yummy!!
I love roasted hokkaido and the addition of cranberries, pepitas and maple syrup sounds great!
I love this colourful salad, it makes me really hungry!
I would like to taste right now this beautiful and colorful salad:) Your photos are so nice!
You did it again Angie. I love roasted pumpkin, serious I can’t get enough of it. This salad looks delicious, the addition of arugula is exciting.
I'm super into unusual winter squash this season, and I've never tried this type of pumpkin so I'm pumped to find some ~ hopefully my farmers market will come through ~ gorgeous salad!
absolutely beautiful Angie xoxo
Holy deliciousness! This looks amazing. I can’t wait to get myhands on hokkaido.
Beautiful salad. I love the flavors and this is a perfect autumn dish.
I love pumpkins and the way you cooked it certainly looks good!
This dish just screams Fall! I'll bring the bread, XOXO
Hokkaido is in season already? I must have look for them here. This roasted Hokkaido salad looks so pretty and delicious, Angie. Roasted Hokkaido and cranberries sound like a lovely combo. Wonderful share, Angie.
This recipe looks fabulous. My mouth is watering.
i'm always looking for interesting ways to serve pumpkin- might consider this for Thanskgiving.
The colors are just stunning, Fall on a plate☺☺
Such a delightful salad recipe, Angie! Can't wait to indulge into it!
This looks wonderful and what a great way to welcome Fall!
Ohhhh I love this. Such a delicious way to jump into autumn.
This looks so delicious!
Your dishes are always ao colourful
I can't wait to start making pumpkin recipes, it's one of the best things about Autumn. I like your recipe a lot, I might try it soon. x
I have to admit that it's depressing starting to see winter squash recipes. It is an indication that summer is over. :( But, with that said, this salad is certainly a wonderfully delicious way to start the fall. Cranberries and pumpkin is a lovely combination.
Perfect autumn salad, love the sweetness of roasted pumpkin.
I'm not sure we are able to source this pumpkin here, I'd love to try it. Roasting fall veggies is one of my favourite things to do. The pepitas as a wonderful addition (still surprises me that they are not more expensive since it's such a pain to make them at home!)

This salad is perfect for fall, Angie! I've never had Hokkaido pumpkin before, so I definitely need to try this! I am absolutely LOVING all the flavors and ingredients! Cheers, friend!
Love how you spiced up the Hokkaido, has to be my favorite of all. Looks truly delicious!!!
Great flavors, colors, and textures in this dish. It looks delicious.
Oh wow!! I've never tried hokkaido pumpkin but it looks and sounds delicious!! I'm so ready for the upcoming fall season and this dish totally gets me pumped Angie!!

I'm so happy pumpkin is in season! This sounds absolutely delicious Angie :D Perfect autumn comforter.
I roast kabocha almost weekly (and not to mention sweet potatoes) and would love to try this hokkaido. Your salad looks so delicious!
This looks like good autumn food! Love this time of the year -- so many great ingredients and recipes. This is a winner -- thanks.
What a pretty presentation! Smoked paprika is one of my favorite spices
This squash/pumpkin dish looks delicious! Makes me excited for fall!
i'm so ready for fall foods! this is the epitome of autumn perfection, and all those colors, textures, and flavors sing together beautifully! :)
One of my favorite things about late summer/early fall is squash and pumpkin season! I don't think I've seen that variety available here but your recipe sounds very adaptable to other kinds of squash. This looks delicious!
délicieuse salade plein de couleurs et de saveurs j'aime beaucoup
bonne soirée
LOVE! I always get a tad intimidated by roasting WHOLE pumpkins but the results are always phenomenal!!!
Looks delicious, great for fall!
Love the look of this hearty fall dish ! The flavour and texture must be delicious !
It looks incredible, Angie. Yum stuff!
Gorgeous! Roasted veggies are my favorite and they sound perfect in this salad!
The colors are beautiful in this dish. Perfect salad for fall.
Wow so many wonderful fall flavors going on here. GReat recipe!
Dear Angie, This looks beautiful. Such a nice fall dish to serve. xo Catherine
perfect as we go into Autumn.
The tart cranberries and crunchy seeds certainly add many dimensions to your beautiful salad.
Will try this on my pumpkin harvest.
Japanese pumpkins are my favourite, so much tastier than butternut squash. We haven't managed to grow any for a few years though and I've never seen any of them for sale.
This is a gorgeous dish, Angie. Love the colors and I'm sure it's delicious too :)
