Shingled Butternut Squash with Harissa and Pistachio Dukkah

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.

  • 100 ml Olive oil
  • 60-80 g Harissa
  • 1 tbsp Apple cider vinegar
  • 3 Small butternut squashes, peeled
  • Sea salt
  • 1 tbsp Fresh parsley or arugula, chopped
  • 3 tbsp Raw pistachios
  • 2 tsp Sesame seeds
  • 1 tsp Fennel seeds
  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. 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.

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.

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 beautiful and delicious! What is your trick to slice so thinly?

[Reply]
tigerfish 16/11/21 03:34

A mandolin does make it easier huh? I can't imagine using a knife for those uniformly sliced butternut squash.

[Reply]
Angie's Recipes 16/11/21 04:46

@Balvinder I just used a very sharp knife, but a mandolin works even better :-)
