Cooking Steps

Roast the Butternut
1
  • Preheat your oven to 240°C/220°C fan/gas mark 9.
  • Pop the butternut squash onto a large (lined) baking tray.
  • Toss with half the harissa, salt, pepper and a drizzle of oil
  • Spread out in a single layer. 
  • When the oven is hot, roast on the top shelf until soft and golden, 18-20 mins. Turn the tray halfway through.
Fry the Mince
2
  • Trim the root and the dark green leafy part from the leek. Halve lengthways, then thinly slice widthways.
  • Place a pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil
  • Add the leek, pork and remaining harissa spice mix. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Cook, stirring, until browned and cooked through, 4-8 mins. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and equipment after handling raw pork. Pork is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.
