Creamy Butternut Squash Linguine - Le Creuset Deep Teal

Preparation time: 5 minutes | Cooking time: 35 minutes 

INGREDIENTS

750g butternut squash, diced 

1 white onion, roughly chopped 

2 garlic cloves, peeled 

2 sage leaves 

5 thyme sprigs, leaves picked 

½ teaspoon ground nutmeg 

Sea salt and cracked black pepper 

1 tablespoon oil 

400ml vegetable stock, warm 

180ml double cream 

50g Parmesan cheese

500g fresh linguine 

Fresh parsley, roughly chopped to serve


METHOD

Preheat the oven to 180°C/ 160°C Fan/ Gas Mark 4.

  1. Place the diced butternut squash in the Signature Cast Iron Shallow Casserole along with the onion, garlic, sage, thyme and nutmeg. Season with salt and pepper before drizzling over the oil.

  2. Give all the ingredients a toss in the oil and then roast in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. After this time, turn the butternut squash and continue to roast for a further 10 minutes (you don’t want to colour the squash, rather just soften).

  3. Once the squash is cooked through, remove from the oven and spoon into a blender. Add the stock, cream and Parmesan before blitzing into a smooth, silky sauce. 

  4. Return the sauce to the casserole and place over a medium to low heat. Add the fresh pasta and warm through until the pasta is cooked - this will take 3-5 minutes. If the sauce is a little thick, add a splash of warm water. 

  5. Finish with the roughly chopped parsley.

Direct contact between the beans and the water means a stronger flavour. Loose tea leaves can also be used in a cafetiere. 1L capacity.

Recipe: Stuffed Baked Apples with Hazelnut Crumb & Cider Caramel Sauce - Serves 4

All the flavours of autumn, these baked apples are stuffed with plump sultanas, mixed spices and brown sugar.

Use the Le Creuset Deep Teal Stoneware Petite Round Casserole.

Le Creuset Deep Teal Recipe

 Preparation time: 5 minutes | Cooking time: 25 minutes 

INGREDIENTS

4 apples, medium sized 

2 tablespoons softened butter 

2 teaspoons mixed spice 

1 teaspoon vanilla extract 

30g sultanas or raisins 

2 tablespoons demerara sugar 

 

For the hazelnut crumb

25g butter

50g plain flour 

25g muscovado sugar 

20g blanched hazelnuts, roughly chopped

 

 For the cider caramel

50g butter 

50g muscovado sugar 

75ml apple cider 

60ml double cream 

METHOD

Preheat the oven to 180°C/ 160°C Fan/ Gas Mark 4.

  1. Core and score round the middle of each apple - place one in each petite casserole. In a separate bowl, combine the butter, mixed spice, vanilla and sultanas. Divide the butter mixture between each apple and fill the cores with the mixture. 

  2. To make the hazelnut crumb, use your fingertips to rub the butter into the flour and sugar to form a sandy texture. Add the hazelnuts, then sprinkle the mixture over the top of the apples. Place in the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes until the apple is soft. 

  3. In the meantime, make the cider caramel sauce. Place the butter, sugar and cider in a heavy-bottom saucepan. Simmer over a medium heat for 8-10 minutes until thick and sticky. Take off the heat and stir through the cream. 

  4. Return the sauce to a low heat and simmer gently for a further 3-5 minutes until a thick glossy sauce is achieved. Keep warm until ready to serve. 

  5. Remove the baked apples from the oven, pour over the cider caramel, leave to cool a little and then finish with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
