Crispy Sage & Squash Stelline


Print

This recipe delivers a solid 10 on the autumn comfort food scale…. It’s also extremely friendly on the pocket (72p for a bag of the Stelline & 64p for an onion squash I used across three dishes) and so simple to make!

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1

    Gently fry off shallot and garlic for a couple of minutes in olive oil.

  2. 2

    Add the pasta and stir well. Continue frying for another minute to lightly toast the pasta.

  3. 3

    Pour in the water/ stock and stir well & frequently to avoid the Stelline sticking to the pan.

  4. 4

    Cook on a rolling simmer/ gentle boil for around 7 minutes.

  5. 5

    Add in 2 crescents of squash that you’ve chopped into small pieces. Cook for another minute or so.

  6. 6

    Using a masher, shandy the squash so it blends with the water/ stock to create this gorgeous orange hued sauce.

  7. 7

    Check seasoning and adjust to your taste.

  8. 8

    Serve with crumbled sage leaves over the top, a crescent of squash and a generous pour of olive oil.
