Scott & Wilson's Squash & Garlic Mushroom Gnocchi
Cookstarter finalist, Scott & Wilson, know how to bring the best out of veg. For this dish, you'll sweeten the cheese sauce with butternut squash before stirring in gnocchi. Bake it topped with spinach, mushrooms and mozzarella, then serve once it's bubbling and golden.

Cooking instructions
Instructions for 2 portion recipe.
Preheat the oven to 200°C/ 180°C (fan)/ Gas 6
Add the butternut squash cubes to a baking paper-lined baking tray
Add the chilli flakes (can't handle the heat? Go easy!), a pinch of salt, a drizzle of olive oil and a splash of water
Tip: The water helps to cook the squash quicker!
Put the tray in the oven for 20-25 min or until fork-tender

Meanwhile, boil a full kettle
Peel and finely chop the brown onion[s]
Peel and finely chop (or grate) the garlic
Slice the portobello mushrooms
Drain the mozzarella, then pat it dry with kitchen paper and tear it into bite-sized pieces
Wash the spinach, then pat it dry with kitchen paper

Heat a large, wide-based pan (preferably non-stick) with a drizzle of olive oil over a medium heat
Once hot, add the chopped onion with a pinch of salt and cook for 5-6 min or until softened, then transfer the softened onion to a plate and reserve the pan
Add the sliced mushroom and chopped garlic to the reserved pan and cook for 4-5 min or until softened

Return the softened onion to the pan with the spinach and cook for 1-2 min or until wilted – these are your spinach & garlic mushrooms
Once the squash is tender, add it to a blender (or pan if using a stick blender) with the veg stock mix, 100ml [150ml] boiled water, 50ml [100ml] milk and half of the grated Italian hard cheese (you'll use the rest later!)
Blitz until smooth – this is your squash sauce

Add the gnocchi to a pot of boiled water and bring to the boil over a high heat
Cook the gnocchi for 3 min or until it begins to rise to the top of the pot
Once done, drain the gnocchi

Add the drained gnocchi to an oven-proof dish and mix in with the squash sauce
Top with the spinach & garlic mushrooms and torn mozzarella
Sprinkle over the remaining Italian hard cheese

Increase the oven to 240ºC/ 220ºC (fan)/ Gas 9
Put the dish in the oven and cook for 10 min or until golden and bubbly – this is your squash & garlic mushroom gnocchi

Serve the squash & garlic mushroom gnocchi with a drizzle of olive oil and a good grind of black pepper
Enjoy!
