Ingredients
- 500 g butternut squash chopped into 1cm / ½inch cubes
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- salt and pepper
- 100 g walnuts
- 300 g linguine (or any pasta shape you like!)
- 50 g Stilton crumbled
- 300 g cream (ideally double/heavy cream, but single cream will still work)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 220C / 200C fan / gas mark 7 / 425F.
- Cut the butternut squash into cubes and spread over a baking tray. Drizzle the cubes of butternut squash with olive oil and turn them in the oil. Sprinkle with some salt and pepper and roast in your preheated oven for 20 minutes.
- While the butternut squash is roasting, cook the pasta according to the packet instructions or your own preferences.
- After the butternut squash has been roasting for 15 minutes, add your walnuts to the roasting tray and roast for 5 more minutes.
- Meanwhile put the cream plus the crumbled stilton into a pan and gently heat and stir until the stilton has melted and the sauce has thickened slightly.
- When the pasta is cooked, drain and tip into the sauce with a small splash of the pasta cooking water. Stir to combine.
- Add half the butternut squash and half the walnuts to the pasta and sauce and stir very gently to combine.
- Divide the pasta between the plates or bowls and use the remaining butternut squash and walnuts to decorate.
