Transformers

After going a little crazy with winter squash varieties at the farmer's market, here are two squash dishes: simply roasted sweet dumpling squash, and butternut squash macaroni and cheese, with a rant about hiding food…
Flor de Calabaza
Mexican roasted chicken is a foil for some sides that use up end-of-season vegetables: green tomato rice and quesadillas full of squash blossoms, made using homemade corn tortillas.

A Fusion Fricassee
Fricassurry? Curricassee? Whatever you want to call this curried chicken fricassee with tender apples and salt-roasted fingerling potatoes, it makes a delicious autumn meal. Amazing where some collard greens can take you!

Strawberry-Coconut Pucks
A disappointing attempt at strawberry-coconut muffins, through no fault of the jammy roasted berries.
In the Words of Murray…
"There's cheese inside... don't tell anybody!" Stuffed corn tortillas called pupusas, a sort of built-in quesadilla, accompany a butterflied chicken roasted with an infusion of Mexican flavors.
Moghrabieh with Levantine Roast Chicken
I took inspiration from moghrabieh, a pea-sized Lebanese semolina couscous, serving it with a roast chicken rubbed with Levantine spices and basted with lemon juice.
