Preheat the oven to 200°C. Place the butternut chunks on half of a roasting tray. Coat in oil, ½ the Indian rub (to taste) and some seasoning. Roast in the hot oven for 25-30 minutes. In a bowl, add the drained Chickpeas, a drizzle of oil and the remaining rub. Toss until coated. Set aside.
IN A PICKLE
In a bowl, combine the red wine vinegar, 30ml of water, ½ tsp of a sweetener of choice and a pinch of salt. Mix until the sweetener has fully dissolved. Add the sliced red onion and toss until coated. Set aside to pickle. In a separate bowl, add the yoghurt, ½ the chopped mint, and seasoning. Mix until combined.
Chickpeas
When the butternut is halfway, give them a shift and add the dressed Chickpeas to the other half of the tray and roast for the remaining time. On completion, the butternut should be cooked through and the chickpeas crispy and golden.
Spinach PURÉE
Boil the kettle. Place a pan over a medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, add the grated garlic and fry for 1 minute until fragrant, shifting constantly. Stir in the cream until heated through. Remove from the heat. Place the shredded Spinach in a bowl, submerge in boiling water, and allow to sit for 1 minute. Drain and run under cold water to stop the cooking process. Squeeze out the excess water with paper towel. Place in a blender with the cream sauce and blend until smooth. Season and cover to keep warm.
GOLDEN NAAN
Return the pan, wiped down, to a medium heat with a drizzle of oil and a knob of butter. When hot, toast the naan bread for 1-2 minutes per side until golden brown. Drain the pickling liquid from the onions.
