Roasted kabocha squash with healthy and sweet coconut and salty fried sage is the perfect vegan side dish!
Roasted delicata squash, cut into slices and then topped with sizzling brown butter, fried sage and freshly grated Parmigiano.
The squash is roasted and caramelized on the outside and tender on the inside and well, you can go wrong with brown butter and the cheese takes the dish over the top. For another wonderful side dish try my Tartiflette (French Potato and Cheese Casserole).
Method:
1) Prep and fry sage and set aside. You can learn how to fry sage here.
2) Next scrub the outside of the Kabocha squash and with a very sharp knife and someone who has some strong hands, carefully cut it in half and scoop out the seeds.
3) Lay the squash halves on their flat side and again with a sharp knife and a strong person, cut them into wedges.
4) Place squash on a foil lined baking sheet and drizzle with melted coconut oil, salt, pepper, curry and dust the top with brown sugar.
5) Roast in oven at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for a total of 30 minutes. Turn wedges over half way through.
6) When done, top with freshly grated Parmigiano and fried sage.
