This vibrant roasted parsnip and butternut squash dish is a wonderful way to celebrate the earthy flavours of seasonal root vegetables. The sweetness of the squash and parsnips is beautifully balanced by ground fennel and cumin, while the addition of sprouted lentils provides a satisfying texture. It is a colourful, nutrient-dense vegetarian meal that feels both wholesome and indulgent, making it a perfect choice for a warming midweek dinner or a relaxed weekend lunch.
To make this dish truly special, the vegetables are served on homemade spelt flatbreads, which are surprisingly simple to prepare in a dry frying pan. The nutty flavour of the spelt flour complements the spiced vegetables perfectly, especially when finished with a handful of peppery rocket and a spoonful of cool Greek yoghurt. It is a versatile recipe that offers a fresh, modern take on traditional autumn produce.

60g full-fat Greek yoghurt, to serve (optional)

How to make Parsnip and Butternut Squash with Flatbreads
Tillbaka till innehållPreheat the oven to 204°C.
Put the cubed butternut squash and parsnips in a baking tray, drizzle with the oil, and scatter the spices on top, tossing to thoroughly coat the vegetables in the spiced oil. Bake in the oven for 35 minutes, tossing them once halfway through and adding the sprouted lentils after 15 minutes, until the vegetables are golden.
In the meantime, make the flatbreads. Mix the flour with the water, oil, and spices in a bowl. Knead until the dough comes together and is smooth and not sticky, adding more water if necessary, then separate the dough into 4 small balls.
Dust the work surface with flour, and roll out the balls of dough using a floured rolling pin (or wine bottle) until you have breads about 8 inches in diameter.
Heat a large, dry frying pan over high heat, then cook each flatbread for 1–2 minutes on each side until lightly browned.
When the vegetables are cooked, remove the tray from the oven, and fold the rocket into the root vegetables. This will gently wilt the leaves. Build your flatbreads, drizzling with a little olive oil or yoghurt on top if you like.
