BEAUTIFUL BUTTERNUT
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Boil the kettle. Place the butternut pieces on a roasting tray, coat in oil, and season. Roast in the hot oven for 25-30 minutes until cooked through and crisping up, shifting halfway.
BRING YOUR SWORD
Place a pot over a medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, add the halved baby tomatoes and fry for 3-4 minutes until softened and starting to blister, shifting occasionally. Add the grated garlic and fry for 1 minute, until fragrant, shifting constantly. Pour in the white wine and leave to simmer for 1-2 minutes until almost all evaporated. Add the stock, ½ the torn basil, seasoning, and 100ml of boiling water. Mix until fully combined. Gently lower the swordfish fillet into the mixture. Pop on the lid and leave to poach for 8-10 minutes, flipping the Fish halfway. On completion, the fish should be cooked through.
GET MASHING
When the butternut is done, place it in a bowl. Mash with a potato masher or fork until smooth. Then, stir through a splash of milk or water, and a knob of butter or a drizzle of oil. Season to taste.
TOAST & TOSS
Place the flaked almonds in a pan over a medium heat. Toast for 3-5 minutes until golden brown, shifting occasionally. Remove from the pan on completion. In a bowl, combine the rinsed salad leaves, ½ the toasted almonds, a drizzle of oil, and seasoning.
EAT UP!
Plate up a big spoonful of the butternut mash and top with the delicious poached swordfish and tomato sauce. Sprinkle over the remaining basil and almonds. Side with the fresh salad. Stunning, Chef!
