Method

  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 200°C (fan 180°C). Peel and cube the butternut squash. Cut the red onions into wedges. Place on a large roasting tray with the unpeeled garlic cloves.

  2. 2

    Drizzle with olive oil, season well and roast for 30 minutes until the squash is tender and caramelised at the edges.

  3. 3

    Meanwhile, cook the pearl barley in the vegetable stock according to packet instructions, then drain.

  4. 4

    Squeeze the roasted garlic from its skins and stir through the pearl barley. Fold in the roasted squash and onions.

  5. 5

    Toast the pine nuts in a dry pan until golden. Scatter the pine nuts and crispy sage leaves (fried briefly in olive oil) over the dish before serving.
