Seek out the garlic cloves in this terrific tray bake. Roasting mellows the garlic flavour and the cloves become soft and sweet.

Ingredients

Red onion

2 medium, cut into wedges

Garlic

8 clove(s)

Pumpkin

600 g, (butternut), peeled, cut into 3cm pieces

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 200°C or 180°C fan forced. Line a large baking tray with baking paper. Place onion, garlic, potatoes and pumpkin on prepared tray. Lightly spray with oil and sprinkle with dried oregano. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Bake for 30 minutes. Add zucchini and bake for a further 5 minutes.
