THIS
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Spread the butternut chunks on a roasting tray. Coat in oil and season. Roast in the hot oven until golden, 25-30 minutes (shifting halfway).
DINNER
Place the sesame seeds in a pan over medium heat. Toast until golden brown, 2-3 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan and set aside. Halve the avocado and set aside the half containing the pip for another meal. Peel off the avocado skin of the remaining half. Roughly dice and place in a salad bowl. Toss with the lime juice.
IS GOING
Return the pan to high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the corn until lightly charred, 3-4 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan and add to the bowl with the avo.
TO BE
When the butternut has 10-15 minutes remaining, return the pan to medium-low heat. Add the crème frâiche, the mustard, the miso paste (to taste), and 30ml of warm water. Leave to simmer until slightly reduced, 2-3 minutes (stirring occasionally). Remove from the heat and whisk in 15g of butter. If the sauce is too thick for your liking, loosen with a splash of warm water. Season, cover, and set aside.
ONE
Pat the trout dry with paper towel. Place a pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the trout skin-side down until crispy, 2-3 minutes. Flip and fry for a further 30-60 seconds or until cooked through to your preference.
TO REMEMBER
In a bowl, combine the roasted butternut and ½ the toasted sesame seeds. Set aside. In the bowl with the diced avo and corn, add the radish matchsticks, the rinsed salad leaves, seasoning, and a drizzle of olive oil. Toss until combined.
