Roasted caramel-like squash with butterbeans cut through with pickled onions and aromatic herbs and finished with a drizzle of smoky harissa sauce.
RecipesIngredients
- 1 butternut squash, halved and sliced into moons
- 1 tin of butterbeans
- 3 tbsp coconut or soya yoghurt
- Handful of coriander
- Handful of parsley

- Salt and cracked black pepper
For the harissa sauce:
- 2 tbsp harissa paste
- 1 tbsp olive oil
Method
- Roast the squash in the oven at 200 degrees celsius for 45 mins.
- Whilst the squash is roasting, make the base of the salad by mixing the yoghurt and herbs in with the butterbeans, reserving a bit of the herbs to sprinkle on top at the end. Add the juice of half the lemon and some salt and pepper.
- Make the harissa sauce by just mixing the harissa paste with the olive oil.
- Spread the yoghurty butterbeans on a serving dish to make the base and top with the squash, preserved lemons, the rest of the herbs and the sunflower seeds.
- Finish with drizzling over the harissa sauce, salt and pepper and another squeeze of lemon.
