Chorizo brings a touch of spice to this dish but for extra kick, add a pinch of chilli flakes before roasting the squash.
Serves: 2
1 small essential butternut squash, deseeded and cut into 1-2cm thick slices
1 tsp fennel seeds
1 tsp cumin seeds
10 sage leaves
6 garlic cloves, crushed
3 tbsp olive oil
400g pack 6 pork chorizo sausages
½ tsp hot paprika
100g essential couscous
3 tbsp natural yogurt
½ lemon, zest and juice
25g pack flat leaf parsley, leaves chopped
1. Preheat the oven to 220˚C, gas mark 7. Over 2 baking trays, toss together the squash, fennel and cumin seeds, sage, most of the garlic and 1½ tbsp oil; season and tuck in the sausages. Roast for 45-50 minutes until golden and cooked through.
2. Meanwhile, heat ½ tbsp oil and the paprika in a small frying pan for 1 minute until fragrant; set aside. Cook the couscous according to pack instructions, stir through the paprika oil, season then cover until ready to serve. In a small bowl, mix together the yogurt, remaining 1 tbsp oil, lemon zest and juice and the reserved garlic.
3. Stir the parsley through the couscous, then pile onto 2 plates. Set aside and chill 2 sausages and ½ the squash for tomorrow. Divide the remaining roast vegetables and sausages between the plates. Drizzle over the dressing and serve.
