Curry-Roasted Delicata Squash

November 20, 2020 By Patricia 22 Comments

Curry-Roasted Delicata Squash is a fabulous side dish to serve this season. The flavors here are tasty and this recipe is as easy as they come – what a great way to enjoy your veggies!

 

It’s the perfect time to share delicious side dish recipes, just in time for Thanksgiving. I’ve gotta say, though, I love making Curry-Roasted Delicata Squash all season long!

You can add pretty much any sort of seasoning you like to the squash before roasting it, but I was especially in love with the curry-based seasoning here. It’s a lot of great flavor for such an easy side dish. I think a Parmesan coating would be lovely, or a Mexican-inspired seasoning with some spice, too.

Have you ever tried Delicata squash? They’re fairly small, striped, and they have a soft skin that is edible. Yeah, it’s a vegetable, but it’s technically a fruit. You know – one of those weird veggie-fruit sorts like tomatoes and eggplant.

Delicata squash is mostly served roasted, but if you can think of another way, let me know. I love it roasted, and even ate the leftovers cold the next day. With that said, they’re perfect to toss into a salad.

Here’s a fabulous recipe by Two Peas & Their Pod for a Roasted Delicata Squash Salad. It’s lovely! 

How to Prepare the Curry-Roasted Delicata Squash

  1. Cut off the ends of the squash.
  2. Carfeully cut the squash in half, lengthwise.
  3. Use a spoon to gently scoop out the seeds and stringy pieces.
  4. Lay the squash on the cutting board, cut side down.
  5. Cut 1/4-inch half rounds.
  6. Lightly oil a baking pan.
  7. Toss the squash pieces in a large bowl with the seasoning and remaining olive oil.
  8. Place the squash pieces on the baking pan, roast and enjoy!

    A few days ago I purchased two of these to add to our Thanksgiving menu. Another Italian friend ( besides you, dear one, told me about this seeet, “ delicate” squash. I’ve only roasted one once and I am now an avid fan! Roasting slices in the oven with olive oil and seasoning is the way to go...and SO simple!
