Ingredients
Roast Pumpkin Mediterranean Spaghetti
- 300g peeled pumpkin, diced 1cm
- 50g semi-dried tomatoes
- 50g Kalamata olives
- 1 courgette, cut lengthways into quarters then diced 1cm
- 50g feta cheese
- 250g fresh spaghetti
- ¼ cup reserved pasta water
- 100g veggie sundried tomato pesto
- 2 handfuls baby kale leaves
To Serve
- 50g feta cheese
Steps
-
Preheat oven to 230°C. Line an oven tray with baking paper. Bring a large pot of salted water to the boil. Toss pumpkin on prepared tray with a drizzle of olive oil. Season well with salt and pepper. Roast for about 18 minutes, until tender. Turn once during cooking.
-
While pumpkin is cooking, thinly slice semi-dried tomatoes and roughly chop olives.
-
When pumpkin has 5 minutes cook time remaining, add courgette to tray and crumble over first measure of feta. Cook for a further 5 minutes, until courgette is tender and feta has melted.
-
While veggies roast, cook pasta in pot of boiling water for 3-4 minutes, until tender. Reserve ¼ cup pasta cooking water then drain. Return spaghetti to pot with a drizzle of olive oil to prevent sticking.
-
Toss cooked pasta with all remaining roast pumpkin and Mediterranean spaghetti ingredients, gently toss to combine and season to taste with lots of pepper and a little salt.
-
To serve, divide roast pumpkin and Mediterranean spaghetti between bowls, and crumble over remaining feta.
