Ingredients

  • 1 medium Kabocha squash cut into wedges
  • 3 tbsp white miso paste
  • 2 tbsp pure maple syrup
  • 1 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 1 tsp toasted sesame oil
  • 2 tbsp avocado oil
  • 1 tbsp toasted black sesame seeds
  • 2 scallions thinly sliced
  • 1/2 tsp red chili flakes

Instructions

1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
2
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the white miso paste, maple syrup, rice vinegar, sesame oil, and avocado oil until the glaze is smooth and emulsified.
3
Place the Kabocha wedges on the baking sheet and generously brush each side with the miso-maple glaze, ensuring they are well-coated.
4
Roast for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the squash is fork-tender and the edges are caramelized with a deep, dark golden char.
5
Remove from the oven and immediately sprinkle with toasted black sesame seeds, fresh scallions, and a pinch of chili flakes.
6
Serve warm alongside steamed jasmine rice or as a centerpiece on a bed of massaged kale for a balanced, vibrant meal.
