    Baked breakfast cheesecake

    I know the idea of cheesecake for breakfast sounds odd, but this

    simple recipe is a great way to start the day, especially if you serve

    it with some fresh berries or a fruit compote. It is incredibly easy to

    throw together since theres no crust, and you can get it on the table

    in little more than half an hour.

    Besides making a luxurious weekend breakfast or brunch, it is also adelicious dessert. Until recently, I thickened the cheese mixture with

    a little semolina or flour, but I tried using oatmeal instead and the

    result was so successful that I now usually do it this way.

    If using salted goat cheese, dont add salt to the recipe.

    Serves 10

    21 ounces ricotta cheeseor cream cheese, or soft,

    very mild goat cheese(preferably unsalted)

    5 tablespoons unsaltedbutter, melted andcooled slightly

    3 tablespoons quickoats, fine semolina, orwhole-wheat pastry flour

    A good pinch of sea salt

    1/2cup superfine sugar

    2 eggs, lightly beaten

    Finely grated zest of2 small oranges, plus

    1 tablespoon juice3 tablespoons raisins(optional)

    To serve:

    Fresh fruit or fruitcompote (see pages33944)

    Yogurt or sour cream(optional)

    Preheat the oven to 325F.

    Generously butter a 9-inch springform cake pan.

    Beat the cheese with a wooden spoon until smooth, then add the

    melted butter, oatmeal, semolina, or flour, salt, sugar, eggs, and

    orange zest and juice, and mix well (feel free to whiz the ingredients

    in a food processor). Fold in the raisins, if using.

    Spoon the mixture into the prepared pan and bake for about

    25 minutes, until just set, with a slight wobble in the center.

    Serve hot, warm, or at room temperature with some fresh fruit or

    fruit compote, and, if you like, yogurt or sour cream.

    Preheat the oven to 375F.

    Slice the squash into quarters and seed it, scooping out the seeds

    with a spoon. I leave the skin on most squashes when Im roasting

    them, but you can peel it off if you prefer. Cut the squash into

    wedges or chunks and put them in a small roasting pan. Add the

    garlic and rosemary, the chopped chile, and lots of salt and pepper.

    Drizzle with 2 to 3 tablespoons of oil and toss together. Roast in

    the oven for 40 to 55 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the

    squash is completely soft and starting to caramelize.

    Meanwhile, if using nuts, toast them in a dry frying pan over

    medium heat for a few minutes, until golden brown, then scatter

    over the roasted squash. Add a squeeze of lemon juice and

    another good drizzle of oil, then serve.

    Serves 4

    1 large butternutsquash, about 2 pounds,or the equivalent weightof acorn or other squashor pumpkin

    6 to 8 fat garlic cloves,skin on, lightly squashed

    A few sprigs of rosemary1 fairly hot red chile,seeded and finelychopped

    Sea salt and freshlyground black pepper

    4 to 5 tablespoonscanola or olive oil1/3cup pine nuts orwalnuts (optional)

    Juice of 1/2lemon

    Roast squash with chile, garlic, and rosemary

    Butternut squash is delicious roasted in this way, but do try some alternative

    squashes and pumpkins if you get the chance. Sugar pie pumpkins are outstanding,

    as are acorn squash.

    This makes an excellent side dish for sausages, chops, roast chicken, or robust fish.

    Since it is creamy and starchy, I tend to serve roast squash instead of, rather than

    as well as, any kind of spuds. On the other hand, dished up with steamed r ice and

    some sauted greens or a green salad, this makes a lovely vegetarian main course.

    Six roasted vegetables

    Roasted vegetables root vegetables and winter squashes in particular

    are rarely less than delicious. The roasting process intensifies flavor, brings

    out sweetness, and adds a rich, caramelized exterior. Its forgiving to thecook (you can be relaxed about timings, and serve your vegetables hot,

    warm, or cold) and versatile too. The following recipes make fantastic

    accompaniments but can also be the main focus of a meal, with just a little

    something else on the side. Leftover roasted roots can be tossed into salads

    or pured in soups, or just nibbled cold as an extra something in your lunch

    box. So you can see why this is a method I return to time and again.
