Instructions
• Preheat oven to 220°C/200°C fan forced. Boil the kettle. • Place peeled pumpkin pieces on a lined oven tray. Drizzle with olive oil, season with salt and toss to coat. • Spread out evenly, then roast until tender, 15-20 minutes.
• Half-fill a large saucepan with boiling water and a generous pinch of salt. Cook fettuccine in boiling water, over high heat, until ‘al dente’, 9 minutes. • Reserve some pasta water (1/4 cup for 2 people / 1/2 cup for 4 people). Drain fettuccine, then return to saucepan. • Meanwhile, finely chop garlic. Roughly chop silverbeet. • In a large frying pan, heat a generous drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. Cook panko breadcrumbs (see ingredients), flaked almonds, half the garlic and a pinch of chilli flakes (if using), stirring, until golden brown, 3-5 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and season to taste. Set aside.
• Return the frying pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. • Cook Aussie spice blend and remaining garlic until fragrant, 1 minute. • Add plant-based cream (see ingredients), silverbeet, vegetable stock powder and reserved pasta water, then simmer until slightly reduced, 1-2 minutes. • Remove pan from heat, add fettuccine, roasted pumpkin and plant-based basil pesto and stir to combine. Season to taste.
• In a medium bowl, combine rocket leaves and a drizzle of vinegar and olive oil. Season to taste. • Divide basil pesto and pumpkin fettuccine between bowls. • Garnish with chilli-garlic pangrattato. Serve with rocket salad. Enjoy!
