Pasta With Roasted Butternut Squash & Onions |
INGREDIENTS:
1 small Butternut, peeled and cut into bite size chunks
1 large Onion, cut into largish dice
1 tsp Oil
2-3 pinches Red Pepper Flakes
1 big clove Garlic, minced
1 tsp dried Thyme leaves
Salt and freshly ground Black Pepper
3-4 Green Onions, thinly sliced
4 oz dried short Pasta, cooked
2-3 Tbsp pasta cooking water
Vegan Parmesan Or chopped Toasted Nuts and Seeds, to serve
METHOD:
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
Line a rimmed baking pan with parchment paper. Place the butternut and onions in a single layer evenly. Sprinkle with a good amount of salt and pepper.
Roast in the oven until the veggies brown a little and become tender. Remove from oven and reserve.
While the veggies are roasting, start cooking the pasta according to package directions. Drain when ready reserving a little of the cooking water.
Heat the oil in a skillet and add red pepper flakes. When the pepper sizzles add the garlic and cook for a few seconds more.
Stir the thyme and the roasted veggies and mix well.
Tip in the pasta and a few tablespoons of the cooking liquid and mix well. Taste and adjust the seasonings.
Sprinkle the green onions on top.
Serve hot with a little vegan parmesan or the nuts and seeds sprinkled on top.
