ROASTED BUTTERNUT SQUASH WITH BROWN BUTTER VINAIGRETTE



Roasted Butternut Squash With Brown Butter Vinaigrette image

This roasted butternut squash is every bit as caramelized as you'd want it to be, without the prep work that's usually involved. First, it's cooked without being peeled: The skin is a crisp counterpart to the jammy interior. (If you do want to get rid of the peel, it tears away easily after roasting.) Then, it's dressed with a vinaigrette made with brown butter, vinegar and dried chile. Mint is added for freshness and flaky salt for crunch, and you could also throw on some cheese - Parmesan, Gruyère, ricotta - for more richness. Serve the squash over sturdy salad greens, or add nuts or pepitas to the browning butter for more texture.

Categories     vegetables, side dish

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 large butternut squash (3 to 4 pounds)
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt and black pepper
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar, plus more as needed
1/4 teaspoon red-pepper flakes, plus more as needed
1/2 cup fresh mint leaves (optional)
Flaky salt

Steps:

  • Arrange a rack at the bottom of the oven and heat to 425 degrees. Slice the squash 1/2-inch-thick crosswise. (No need to peel.) Cut slices in half, if desired, to make half moons. Remove the seeds from the squash with a spoon and discard.
  • On a rimmed baking sheet, toss the squash with the olive oil, and season with salt and pepper. Spread in an even layer and roast on the bottom rack until browned, 20 to 25 minutes. Flip and roast until tender, another 5 to 10 minutes.
  • After you flip the squash, make the brown butter: Melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium. Cook, swirling occasionally, until the foam subsides, the milk solids turn golden-brown and it smells nutty, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from heat and add the vinegar and red-pepper flakes. Season with salt and pepper and set aside on the stovetop until the squash is ready. (The heat from the oven keeps the butter from hardening.)
  • Dip a piece of squash into the vinaigrette, try it, and adjust vinegar, salt and red-pepper flakes to taste. Spoon the vinaigrette over the squash and top with mint leaves, if using, and flaky salt.

Tips:

  • Choose the right squash: Look for firm, heavy butternut squash with smooth, unblemished skin. Avoid squash with soft spots or blemishes.
  • Cut the squash evenly: This will help it cook evenly. Cut the squash in half lengthwise, and then scoop out the seeds and pulp. Cut each half into 1-inch thick slices.
  • Roast the squash at a high temperature: This will help to caramelize the squash and bring out its natural sweetness. Roast the squash at 425 degrees Fahrenheit for 20-25 minutes, or until it is tender and slightly browned.
  • Use brown butter: Brown butter adds a nutty, savory flavor to the squash. To brown butter, melt it in a saucepan over medium heat. Cook the butter until it turns golden brown and has a nutty aroma.
  • Season the squash with nutmeg: Nutmeg is a classic spice that pairs well with butternut squash. Season the squash with nutmeg to taste.
  • Serve the squash warm: Roasted butternut squash is best served warm. You can serve it as a side dish or as a main course.

Conclusion:

Roasted butternut squash in brown butter and nutmeg is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed as a side dish or as a main course. It is a great way to use up leftover butternut squash, and it is also a healthy and flavorful dish. With its sweet and savory flavors, roasted butternut squash in brown butter and nutmeg is sure to please everyone at your table.
