Steps

  1. Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F).

  2. Cut butternut squash in half length-wise and scrape out seeds. Slice onion and sweet potato in half and place on a lined baking tray along with the butternut squash, cutside down with a rosemary sprig and garlic cloves underneath. Bake for 30-40 minutes or until soft.

  3. For the stuffing, combine all ingredients into a bowl and mash together with your hands. Place on a lined baking sheet and spread out. Cook along with the squash for 15-20 minutes until crispy on the outside but still slightly soft on the inside. Break or cut up into pieces.

  4. Peel off the skin from the squash, chop up onion and sweet potato into large chunks, then place in a blender along with the remaining ingredients and blend until smooth. Add to a pot to heat up. Adjust seasoning.

  5. Serve with a swirl of cream and the stuffing croutons.
