Pasta with butternut squash
Here’s a recipe for a flavoursome, hearty pasta dish that is both easy and quick to make. This dish is made with a spicy pasta sauce of roasted butternut squash and cottage cheese, blended together into a creamy sauce. The butternut squash, onion and garlic caramelise beautifully when roasted first, giving the dish depth and a really lovely flavour. In this recipe, the sauce is made with butternut squash, but you can easily use more or different vegetables, such as tomatoes, peppers or broccoli, depending on what is in season. The dish is topped with salted almonds, a little Parmesan and fresh thyme.
