This hearty vegetarian main course, or quick family supper, is healthy as well as delicious

Provided by Barney Desmazery

Categories     Dinner, Main course, Starter, Vegetable

Time 2h10m

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 butternut squash , halved, deseeded and cut into wedges
2 garlic cloves
sprig of thyme
2 tbsp olive oil
freshly grated nutmeg
up to 3-4 tbsp plain flour
105g parmesan , grated
100g butter
handful sage leaves
1 red chilli , deseeded and chopped

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 220C/fan 200C/gas 7. Tip the squash into a roasting tray. Toss with the garlic, thyme and olive oil, then season. Cover the dish with foil and roast for 40 mins until soft. Leave to cool slightly.
  • When the squash is cool enough to handle, remove the flesh and use a spatula to force it through a fine sieve. Tip into a clean pan, then gently cook for 30-40 mins until reduced to a dense mass that comes away from the sides of the pan. Leave to cool.
  • You will have around 175g once cooked down. Tip purée into a bowl, then season with the nutmeg, salt and pepper. Mix in the egg, flour and 65g of the parmesan. You should have a soft pliable dough so, if it's too wet, add more flour until it's the right consistency.
  • Take a third of the dough and, on a floured surface, roll into a long strip about the thickness of your thumb. Cut the strip into little pillows about 3cm long, then press each one gently with the back of a fork. repeat with the remaining dough.
  • Bring a large pan of water to the boil, then drop in the gnocchi in batches. Cook until they float, then give them a minute more before scooping out and putting them in a bowl of iced water. When they're all cooked, drain well.
  • To serve, heat a grill to high. Melt the butter in a large pan until sizzling, then throw in the chilli and sage - sizzle for a minute before throwing in the gnocchi and tossing through. tip into a heatproof dish, scatter with parmesan, flash under the grill until browned, then serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Make sure to choose a ripe butternut squash with bright orange flesh for the best flavor.
  • To easily peel the butternut squash, first cut it in half lengthwise and scoop out the seeds. Then, place the squash cut-side down on a baking sheet and roast it at 400°F for 45 minutes, or until the skin is wrinkled and tender. Once roasted, the skin will peel off easily.
  • If you don't have a potato ricer, you can use a food mill or a fine-mesh strainer to mash the roasted butternut squash.
  • Be careful not to overwork the gnocchi dough, as this will make them tough. Mix it just until the ingredients are combined.
  • When cooking the gnocchi, make sure the water is gently simmering. If the water is boiling, the gnocchi will break apart.
  • To test if the gnocchi are done, drop one into the simmering water. If it floats to the top, it is done.
  • Serve the gnocchi immediately, topped with the garlic sage butter and wilted spinach.
