Background

Quite honestly, I don't think I would put on the oven just for this recipe! But this roasted squash with red onion is perfect for various dishes - mixed with pasta, rice, couscous or served mashed on toast or as a side-dish with roasted/grilled meat. So make more than you need and chill/freeze the rest for creating other dishes with it!

Ingredients

½ medium butternut squash
1 red onion
2 garlic cloves
1 Tbsp chopped herbs (rosemary, thyme or oregano)
1 Tbsp olive oil
Parmesan (optional)

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 200°C. Peel the squash, remove the seeds and the membrane, then cut it into bite-sized chunks.
Peel the onions, then cut each into eight wedges. Put the vegetables in a roasting tin.
Slice the garlic, scatter over the veggies together with the herbs. Drizzle with the oil and season with salt &pepper. Toss everything together with your hands. Roast for about 30 minutes, until tender and golden.
Meanwhile, cook the pasta in a large pan of salted water following the timings given on the packet. Drain the pasta, reserving about half a cup of the cooking water.
Toss the pasta and roasted vegetables. Add some cooking water.
Serve with freshly grated Parmesan if you like.

Tips

If you make this dish with leftover, just warm it up in the microwave or in a frying pan, then mix with the cooked pasta!
