This shigled butternut squash recipe, adapted from Bon Appetit, leans a bit spicy, tangy and smoky thanks to the generous use of homemade harissa (jarred versions available at specialty stores or on amazon make a good substitute), a peppery, garlicky condiment orginally from Tunisia, mixed with olive oil, and apple cider vinegar. It’s incredibly simple to put together, flavourful, and it tastes yummy.
|
- Preheat oven to 190C/375F. Whisk together the olive oil, harissa, and apple cider vinegar in a large bowl to combine. Thinly slice butternut squashes crosswise on a mandoline 3mm/1/8inch thick.
- Add to bowl with harissa mixture and toss to coat. Season well with salt. Arrange the squashes so they are standing upright in concentric circles in a large baking dish, packing tightly. Sprinkle the chopped parsley over.
- Roast, brushing any accumulated harissa oil in dish onto squashes every 10–15 minutes, until soft and starting to brown on top, about 80 minutes.
- Meanwhile, toss pistachios, sesame seeds, and fennel seeds on a small rimmed baking sheet. Toast alongside sweet potatoes until aromatic, about 5 minutes. Let cool, then chop coarsely. Set dukkah aside.
- Remove butternut squash from oven and brush with accumulated harissa oil. Sprinkle with prepared pistachio dukkah.

Angie, We both love butternut squash but 'shingled' like this is a revelation for sure. Love the spices and harissa especially. Take Care, Big Daddy Dave
How many delicious and delicious meals Angie offers us.
I follow you with interest and because I learn from your gastronomy, but many of the proposals are not viable in my country.
I leave you a hug; happy weekend!!
I have searched and found a way to make Harissa and Dukkah in a homemade way.
Perhaps this way I can achieve the most similar dish possible. I like these flavors.
Thank you always.
Happy weekend.
Estupenda receta vegetal, las verduras nos gustan en general y al horno en particular. Y queda muy vistosa para ponerla en la mesa.
Un beso.

Looks very nice although that is a lot of time to cook, I'd probably ad half a cup of hot water with some vegeta to cook it in half an hour or less.
It looks beautiful and delicious. I wish to taste it.

OMG! This dish looks amazing and another one which is so full of complementing flavours.
I am really into some of the spicy and flavoursome regional dips and dressings you so often feature. I'm sure I was born into the wrong culture!
Have a lovely Monday :)

I've made potatoes like this, but not squash. And when I say "like," I don't mean with such interesting additions as pistachios! This is lovely holiday side dish.
This looks so delicious! I need to try this recipe!

Dear Angie,
What a beautiful dish to place on the holiday table. Delicious!! Hope all is well my friend. xo
Mmm.. that looks fantastic.
That is such a beautiful way to serve butternut squash. Terrific recipe
beautiful fall presentation
This looks beautiful and delicious! What is your trick to slice so thinly?
A mandolin does make it easier huh? I can't imagine using a knife for those uniformly sliced butternut squash.
@Balvinder I just used a very sharp knife, but a mandolin works even better :-)
This looks amazing and sounds so so delicious! I first didn't read the caption and just saw the picture and thought of it being a cake :P
Angie,
The colors, flavors, and presentation of this beautiful recipe are blowing me away. I love it!
Beautiful presentation and sounds amazing!
Jenna
Looks beautiful and delicious. Love it!
Perhaps, that's one of the most impressive ways to serve butternut squash I've ever seen. Loving the addition of pistachios and fennel seeds, too.
Love this, it reminds me of Hasselback potatoes
Looks amazing and I'm sure it tastes amazing too.
All the best Jan
BEAUTIFUL!
Such a unique and beautifully delicious fall dish. Perfect for the holiday season. :-) ~Valentina
What a beautiful way to present squash and represent autumn.
This is such a pretty way to present butternut squash. And I'm in love with the sound of pistachio dukkah.
