SPICY ROASTED DELICATA SQUASH
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
- Cut the squash in half lengthwise and scoop out and reserve the seeds in a small bowl. Cut the squash into 1-inch half-moons and place into a large bowl.
- Thinly slice 1 of the jalapenos and place in a small bowl with the white balsamic, making sure the vinegar covers the peppers completely. Set aside to pickle while the squash cooks.
- Meanwhile, thinly slice the remaining jalapeno and transfer to a small skillet with 1/4 cup of the olive oil and 1 teaspoon of the harissa. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring frequently, until the peppers are shimmering and starting to lighten in color in the center and the seeds are turning golden brown, about 5 minutes. Strain the oil into the large bowl with the squash and add the remaining 2 teaspoons harissa, 1 teaspoon salt and a generous amount of freshly ground black pepper. Use tongs (the oil will be hot) to toss everything together. Transfer to a baking sheet and bake until a butter knife can be inserted easily into the squash and removed, about 30 minutes.
- While the squash is cooking, toss the seeds with the pumpkin pie spice, cayenne pepper, remaining 1/2 teaspoon olive oil, 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of black pepper. Transfer to a baking sheet and bake until light golden and crispy, 7 to 8 minutes.
- Transfer the squash to a serving platter. Drain the jalapenos and sprinkle over top along with the feta cheese and roasted seeds.

BUTTERNUT SQUASH SOUP WITH CORIANDER AND PUMPKIN SEED PESTO
I had some butternut squash to use as I had cut one for another recipe. I found this recipe in the 'delicious' magazine in the November 2004 edition. I realised that I also had lots of fresh coriander (cilantro) and sour cream sitting in the fridge, so this recipe was just made for the situation I was in! In this recipe, the squash is roasted first to enhance its flavour. I love the combination of the smooth butternut squash purée and the freshness of the coriander. But what really rounds the soup off is the cold and creamy sour cream and the roasted, crunchy pumpkin seeds. This soup makes a great starter, but also a nice meal when served with bread and or salad. The original recipe calls for kabocha squash or pumpkin.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 180°C/fan160°C/350°F/gas 4.
- Remove skin, fibres and seeds of the squash/pumpkin and cut into cubes (mine were approximately 5-6cm). (You may also want to leave the skin on and remove after roasting if this is easier with the particular squash/pumpkin you are using.) Rub the squash pieces with sunflower oil and season well with salt and pepper. Put them into a small roasting tin (skin-side down if skin wasn't removed). Roast for about 40 minutes or until tender.
- Remove squash from oven and remove skin when cool enough to handle if you haven't done so earlier. You may also want to cut squash into smaller chunks if your pieces are rather big. I didn't cut mine any smaller, as I preferred to cut my squash into smallish chunks before roasting.
- Melt the butter in a large pan, add the onion and cook gently for about 10minutes until the onion is very soft but not browned. Add the roasted squash, and any juices from the plate and the stock. Note: I used 1.2 litres of water, but only stock cubes for 1 litre, as you have salted your squash before roasting it, and you will also add parmesan. Cover and simmer for 20 minutes or until squash is ready to be liquidised.
- Meanwhile, make the PESTO:.
- Heat a dry, heavy-based frying pan over a high heat. Add the pumpkin seeds and shake them around until lightly toasted. Cool, reserving 1 tablespoon of seeds to garnish.
- Put the rest of the seeds into a food processor with the chilli, garlic, fresh coriander and oil. Blend to a paste. Transfer to a bowl and stir in the parmesan, seasoning to taste.
- Finish SOUP:.
- Leave the soup to cool slightly, then liquidise in batches until smooth. Note: I always use a high pan and a hand-held liquidiser, so I don't need to remove and return the soup. Return to a clean pan and bring back to a gentle simmer. Stir in 4 tablespoons of the pesto (I stirred in all of it, although it was more than 4 tablespoons, but stir in four and check how you like it)and adjust the seasoning.
- SERVE:.
- Ladle into warmed bowls and add a spoonful of sour cream, and sprinkle with the reserved pumkin seeds and coriander leaves.
- If you haven't used the whole amount of pesto before, serve it at the table, so everybody can stir in more if desired. Another possibility is to top crackers or toasted bread with it and serve together with the soup.

Steps:
- Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Cut the pumpkin in half and remove the seeds with a spoon (see tip below). Cut into wedges or chunks (keep the skin on) and tip into a bowl. Put the garam masala, and 1 tsp each of the coriander and cumin into a small bowl and mix with 2 tbsp of the oil and season. Drizzle over the pumpkin and toss well to coat in the spiced oil. Transfer to a baking tray, spread out evenly and roast for 40-45 mins, turning halfway through cooking, until the pumpkin is very soft when pierced with a fork. Leave to cool on the tray for a few minutes.
- Heat the remaining 1 tbsp olive oil in a large saucepan and fry the onion with a pinch of salt for 10 mins until soft. Add the ginger, garlic and remaining spices and chilli flakes, and fry for a few more minutes until fragrant. Pour in the stock and bring to a gentle simmer.
- When the pumpkin is cool enough to touch, use a spoon to scoop the soft flesh from the skins. Add the soft pumpkin to the stock pan, discarding the skins. Remove from the heat and blitz the soup with a hand blender until creamy and smooth. Season to taste, adding extra chilli or garam masala if you like. Put back over a low heat and stir in the cream. Bring to a gentle simmer, then serve in bowls with a drizzle more cream and a pinch of chilli to serve. Top with toasted pumpkin seeds, if you like.

- In a wide sauté pan, heat the pumpkin seeds over medium heat just until they begin to make a popping sound. Sprinkle over a pinch of salt, and continue toasting the seeds while shaking the pan (be careful to keep the seeds moving, or they will burn on the bottom of the pan). When the seeds are lightly toasted and fragrant, remove from heat. Grind them in a food processor and place in a small bowl, tossing with the pumpkin seed oil and salt to taste to form a "pesto." This makes about two-thirds cup pesto.
- Heat a large, heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high heat until hot. Add the butter and oil, and stir until the butter melts. Stir in the squash and season with 1½ teaspoons salt and one-fourth teaspoon nutmeg. Reduce the heat to medium and cover the pot to cook the squash. Remove the lid every 5 to 10 minutes, stirring the squash to cook it evenly.
- Once the squash is softened and begins to break down, after about 15 minutes, add the diced onion and garlic cloves. Cover with the lid again and continue to cook for about 10 minutes to soften the aromatics and marry the flavors.

- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Place the squash, cut sides down, on the baking sheet and roast for about 30 minutes, or until mostly tender. Let the squash cool for a few minutes, then scoop the flesh into a small bowl and discard the skin. (There might be some bits of squash that aren’t completely cooked, but don’t worry, the rest will cook in the pot with the broth.)
- In a medium pot or Dutch oven, warm the oil over medium heat until shimmering. Add the shallot and cook until softened, about 2 minutes. Add the garlic, reserved squash, pumpkin, 1 teaspoon salt, chile powder, cumin, oregano, coriander and cloves. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes, until the spices are fragrant.
- Pour in the vegetable broth or water and lemon juice. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat and cook for about 10 minutes, or until the squash is completely softened.
- Using an immersion blender, blend the soup until smooth, about 30 seconds to 1 minute. If you don’t have an immersion blender, blend the soup in a stand blender, in batches (do not fill your blender past the maximum fill line). Securely fasten the blender’s lid and use a kitchen towel to protect your hand from steam escaping from the top of the blender as you purée the mixture until smooth. Transfer puréed soup to a serving bowl and repeat with remaining batches.
