Cooking time: 00:30

Ingredients

1250 g butternut - peeled and cubed
1 large onion - peeled and sliced thinly
1 Tbs olive oil
1 tsp ground cumin
1 can chickpeas - drained and rinsed
1 clove garlic - chopped
1 tsp dry chilli flakes
1 Tbs fresh coriander - chopped
salt and pepper to taste

Method

Preheat the oven to 200°C. In a microwave-proof dish with a lid, cook the butternut in the microwave oven on high for 5-6 minutes or until soft.

Transfer the butternut to an oven-proof dish, add the sliced onions and drizzle with the olive oil, cumin, salt and pepper.

Roast for 10-15 minutes or until golden. Add the chickpeas for the last 2-3 minutes to warm through.

 In a warmed serving bowl, roughly mash the butternut and chickpeas with the garlic and the chili flakes and serve on spicy couscous with a dollop of yogurt, chopped chillies and fresh coriander.
