Recipe Instructions
| Prepare all ingredients as described. Cook onion over a medium heat in a saucepan with a little oil and a touch of salt until they start to soften (2 – 3mins). Add garlic and cook out for a minute before adding the chopped butternut squash and cooking for a further minute then adding the spices, milk and water. Allow the liquid to simmer and then cover the pan with a lid, reduce the heat to low and cook until the squash is tender (12 – 15mins). Whilst the squash is simmering cook the pasta in boiling salted water until soft (8 – 12mins). Once the squash is cooked either crush with a potato masher or roughly blend with a hand blender before adding the cooked pasta (add a splash of pasta water if your sauce is too thick). Mix everything together and add any optional ingredients. Prepare vegetables as described. |
