This recipe serves 10 as a side dish, but you can cut it in half.  Can be served at room temperature or warm slightly as a side dish. You can change the roasted vegetables if you like and alter the seasonings. The directions for roasting the vegetables are in the oven, but I used the air fryer and it worked  great. 

Day 1:
The day before rinse the berries under cold running water. Then soak the  one cup kamut berries overnight add enough water to cover them by 2 inches.

Day 2:
Instant Pot: 
  • Combine 1 cup soaked kamut with 2 1/2 cups water or veggie broth.
  • Bring to high pressure, and cook for 12 minutes.
  • Let the pressure come down naturally, drain off any leftover liquid and set aside.

Recipe:
1 cup kamut berries - soak overnight
1 head cauliflower, trimmed and broken into small florets (1 1/2 #)
1 small butternut squash, peeled seeded & cut into 3/4 inch cubes (1 1/2 #)
1/4 c. plus 3 T. olive oil
2 small red onions sliced
4 shallots or onions, sliced
1 tsp. brown mustard seeds
3/4 tsp. curry powder
Pinch cayenne pepper
2 T. sherry or wine vinegar
 Juice of one lemon
1/2 c. packed fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves
1/2 c. silvered almonds, toasted

Directions:
  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees (or use your Air Fryer)
  2. Place the cauliflower and squash on two separate rimmed baking sheets; drizzle each with 2 tablespoons olive oil and toss to coat. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer to oven and roast until golden and slightly crisp, about 15 minutes for cauliflower and 30 minutes for squash.
  3. Heat the remaining 3 tablespoons olive in a large saucepan over medium-low heat. Add onions and shallots. Season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until soft and golden, but not browned about 15 minutes.
  4. Increase heat to medium-high and add mustard seeds, curry powder, cumin, and cayenne pepper. continue cooking until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add sherry vinegar, stirring from the bottom of the pan to de-glaze and cook 2 minutes more. 
  5. Remove from heat and add to bowl with the kamut berries along with the lemon juice, stir to combine. Add the cauliflower and squash, toss to combine. Just before serving, add the parsley leaves and almonds. Toss to combine. Season with salt and pepper.
  6. Serve warm or at room temperature.
