Pasta with butternut and cashew cream
Ingredients (for 2 people)
250 grams of butternut squash
100 grams cashew nuts
100 ml vegetable milk (in this case oat milk)
2 cloves of garlic
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 vegetable stock cube
250 grams of wholemeal pasta
salt and pepper
To serve: chopped fresh parsley and pumpkin seeds
Preparation
Preheat the oven to 180°C on grill mode.
Peel the butternut squash and cut into bite-sized pieces. Peel and finely chop the garlic cloves.
Place the butternut squash and minced garlic on a baking tray lined with baking paper and drizzle with olive oil. Season with salt and pepper and bake for 25 minutes.
Meanwhile, soak the cashews in a bowl of boiling water for 30 minutes.
Cook the pasta according to the cooking instructions. Drain and set aside.
When the butternut is cooked, place it in the bowl of a blender. Drain the cashews and add them to the bowl with the vegetable milk and the 1/2 vegetable stock cube. Add salt and pepper and blend until you have a smooth cream. If it seems too thick, add more vegetable milk.
Collect the pasta and place it in a saucepan with a dash of olive oil. Empty the contents of the food processor into the pan and mix well to completely impregnate the pasta. Allow to warm up for a few minutes on a low heat.
