- Cut the squash in half lengthwise. Scoop out the seeds with a spoon, then cut into half-inch slices. Toss with salt, curry powder, and olive oil.
- Roast squash uncovered at 400 degrees F for about 10 minutes.
- Combine the remaining ingredients except pomegranate to make a vinaigrette for the kamut.
- Toss vinaigrette with the kamut and the delicata. Serve in a bowl and sprinkle with pomegranate seeds.
