  • 1 small butternut squash
  • 200 g cooked chickpeas
  • 1 small pumpkin
  • 400 g spinach or other fresh leafy vegetables
  • 500 g button mushrooms
  • 2 red onions
  • 100 g of cheese to melt

  • 1 handful of whole almonds
  • olive oil
  • salt

For the sauce

  • 70 g of sesame puree
  • 100 g of white cheese
  • 1 C. to s. miso

The preparation

Preheat the oven to 200°C. Take advantage of the rise in temperature of the oven to place the whole almonds to roast, but be careful to remove them after 10 minutes.

On a baking tray covered with parchment paper, place the whole sweet potatoes, the butternut and the pumpkin cut in half, brushed and rinsed, drizzle with a drizzle of olive oil, salt and bake for about 40 minutes.

Wash and chop the spinach, or other leafy vegetable, and let them “fall”: place them in a pan with a drizzle of olive oil and cover, they will “fall” and be cooked in a few minutes.

Brown the button mushrooms once washed and cut into slices in a pan with olive oil until they are nicely grilled. Brown the red onions cut into strips in the same pan as the mushrooms until they are golden.

Cut slices of cheese to melt. Coarsely chop the roasted almonds. In a salad bowl: mix the chickpeas, chopped spinach, onions and mushrooms.

Prepare the sauce by mixing all the ingredients.

Remove the squash and sweet potatoes from the oven, garnish them with the chickpea, spinach, onion and mushroom mixture. Sprinkle with pieces of melted cheese, put the oven on the grill position and put the vegetables in the oven for 3 minutes, until the cheese melts.

Serve immediately, topped with sesame sauce and sprinkled with fresh coriander and crushed almonds.
