I love a one pan dish and this is a wonderful family meal or share with friends. Have on it’s own or with herby harissa couscous salad.
Inspired by the recipe written by Tieghan Gerard and using ingredients easily available in the UK
1 butternut squash – peeled, halved and sliced
5 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
3 tbsp clear honey
1 tbsp sriracha (chilli sauce)
1 side salmon, skin on (850g – 1kg)
2 tbsp harissa paste
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 lemon, sliced and squeeze the juice from the end pieces into the harissa paste
2 tbsp pomegranate seeds
2 sprigs mint, chopped
4 sprigs coriander, chopped
Preheat the oven to 220C fan. Line a large baking tray with baking paper.
Put the squash sliced in a bowl. Drizzle with 2 tbsp of olive oil, honey, sriracha and season generously with salt and. Toss to coat and tip onto the baking tray, spreading the slices out into an even layer. Bake for 20 minutes until the squash is tender. Remove from the oven and reduce the heat to 160C fan.
Push the squash to the edges of the pan and place the salmon in the centre. Mix the garlic into the harissa paste then rub the top of the salmon with the paste, season with salt. Scatter the lemon slices around the salmon and drizzle with remaining 3 tbsp of olive oil. Pop back in the oven and roast for 20 – 30 minutes. it should flake apart easily when cooked.
Scatter with pomegranate seeds and herbs and serve.
