  1. Butternut

    Preheat the oven to 200°C. Spread out the Butternut on a roasting tray. Coat in oil and season. Roast in the hot oven until cooked through and crispy, 25-30 minutes (shifting halfway).

  2. OR-ZO GOOD!

    Bring a pot of salted water to a boil for the orzo. Cook the orzo until al dente, 10-12 minutes. Drain and toss through a drizzle of olive oil.

  3. FLIPPING GOOD Fish

    When the Butternut has 15-20 minutes remaining, place a pan over medium heat with a drizzle of oil and a knob of butter. Pat the hake dry with paper towel and season. When the pan is hot, fry the hake, skin-side down, until crispy and golden, 3-4 minutes. Flip and fry the other side until browned but not cooked through, 2-3 minutes. Remove from the pan.

  4. SPICY, CREAMY & DREAMY

    Return the pan, wiped down, to medium heat with a drizzle of oil. Fry the Onion until soft, 2-3 minutes (shifting occasionally). Add the garlic, the NOMU rub, and the chilli (to taste). Fry until fragrant, 1-2 minutes (shifting constantly). Pour in the cream and 50ml [100ml]|#7DA0D7 of water. Simmer until slightly thickened, 3-4 minutes.

  5. HOOKED ON HAKE

    Once the sauce has thickened, add the browned hake and simmer until cooked through, 1-2 minutes. Add the lemon juice (to taste) and season.

  6. FINAL FLAIR

    Add the roasted Butternut and ½ the parsley to the orzo. Mix until combined.

  7. INDULGE!

    Plate up the loaded orzo. Top with the hake and the creamy sauce. Sprinkle over the remaining parsley. Well done, Chef!
