  • Vegetarian
Preparation time:
15 minutes
Cooking time:
70 minutes
Total time:
1 hour 25 minutes 60 minutes 25 minutes
Serves:
 4

Ingredients

  • 1 medium butternut squash
  • 180g pack Romano peppers
  • 2 red onions, peeled
  • 4 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
  • 250g pack Cypressa Cyprus Halloumi cheese, cut or torn into chunks
  • 2 tbsp toasted pine nuts
  • Fresh basil leaves to garnish

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 200°C, gas mark 6. Peel the squash, cut in half lengthways and remove the seeds. Cut the flesh into chunks and place in a large roasting tin.
  2. Cut the peppers in half, remove the seeds and stalks and cut into chunky pieces. Add them to the roasting tin. Halve the onions, then cut into small wedges and place in the tin. Drizzle the vegetables with the olive oil and coat well. Season with freshly ground black pepper. Roast in the oven for 45 minutes or until slightly charred at the edges.
  3. Remove the vegetables from the oven and sprinkle with the vinegar. Scatter the cheese over the top and cook for a further 25 minutes or until the halloumi is golden.
  4. Scatter the pine nuts and basil leaves over the top and serve piping hot.

Cook's tips

These vegetables generate a lot of steam, so use the biggest roasting tin you have to give them plenty of space. Alternatively, use 2 smaller tins and swap shelf positions halfway through cooking.

Drinks recommendation

A full flavoured red wine is lovely with the autumnal flavours of this bake.

This is very yummy and perfect for autumn/winter. Instead of peppers you could use sweet potato and carrot. And instead of halloumi you could use feta cheese.

I have prepared this dish several times and enjoyed it every time. Very easy to prepare. Sumptuously tasty resulting in positive comments from my wife. Try to go easy on the olive oil so as to avoid too much richness!
