1. Heat the vegetable oil in a heavy-based saucepan. Add the shallot and garlic and fry gently until softened. Add the rice, mushrooms, sultanas, pine nuts and lemon juice and fry for 1 minute.

2. Season with salt and freshly ground pepper, then add enough water to cover the rice by 1.5 cm. Bring to the boil, cover the pan and reduce the heat and simmer for 15 minutes until the rice is tender and the water absorbed.

3. Mix in the roasted squash, spring onion, parsley and mint. Rinse the cabbage leaves.
