This roasted butternut squash with shallots and sage is a quintessential autumn side dish that brings a wonderful depth of flavour to the table. The natural sweetness of the squash is enhanced by a touch of brown sugar and balanced by the acidity of balsamic vinegar, while fresh sage provides a fragrant, earthy note. It is a vibrant, colourful addition to any roast dinner or a simple midweek meal.
As a naturally dairy-free recipe, this dish is an excellent choice for those seeking lighter, plant-forward options without sacrificing richness. The combination of slow-softened shallots and tender squash creates a comforting texture that pairs perfectly with roasted meats or hearty grain salads. Simple to prepare in one pan, it is a fuss-free way to enjoy seasonal produce at its best.
