Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 800 grams pumpkin
- 300 grams cherry tomatoes
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 garlic cloves
- 1 teaspoon fresh rosemary
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 150 grams mozzarella cheese
- 50 grams parmesan cheese
- 50 grams breadcrumbs
- 1 tablespoon butter
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F).
Peel and cut the pumpkin into bite-sized cubes. Halve the cherry tomatoes.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the pumpkin cubes and cherry tomatoes with olive oil, minced garlic, rosemary, oregano, salt, and black pepper. Toss to coat evenly.
Transfer the mixture into a baking dish and spread it out in an even layer.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the pumpkin starts to become tender.
While the vegetables are baking, grate the mozzarella and parmesan cheeses. In a small bowl, mix the breadcrumbs with the melted butter until combined.
After 25 minutes, remove the baking dish from the oven. Sprinkle the grated mozzarella and parmesan evenly over the vegetables, then top with the buttered breadcrumbs.
Return the dish to the oven and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbling and the breadcrumbs are golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Serve warm and enjoy your Pumpkin and Tomato Bake as a side dish or vegetarian main course!
