Acorn squash in brown butter in an air fryer topcook.tomathouse.com
Ingredients:
- 1 small acorn squash (about 700g), halved, seeded and sliced 1cm thick.
- 2 tbsp. l. olive oil
- 0.5 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1/4 cup fresh sage leaves
- 1/4 cup coarsely chopped pecans
- 1 tbsp finely grated Parmesan
- Special equipment: air grill with a capacity of 3.5 liters.
Preparation:
- Preheat the air fryer to 200°C (400°F). Combine the pumpkin, olive oil, red pepper flakes, and 1 teaspoon of salt in a large bowl. Transfer to the air fryer basket and cook, turning halfway through, until the pumpkin is tender and golden brown and crisp around the edges, 20–25 minutes.
- Meanwhile, melt the butter in a small skillet over medium-low heat. Continue cooking, swirling the pan occasionally, until the butter is fragrant and the milk solids are golden brown, 4 to 6 minutes. Immediately remove the skillet from the heat and stir in the sage, pecans, and a pinch of salt.
- Place the pumpkin on a serving platter and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese until warm and melted. Drizzle with brown butter, sage, and walnuts.
