Jamie Oliver Air Fryer Squashage Rolls Ingredients

• ½ a butternut squash (600g)
• 2 tablespoons dukkah
• 1 pinch of dried red chilli flakes
• 1 x 250g packet of cooked mixed grains
• 100g feta cheese
• 1 large egg
• 320g sheet of ready-rolled puff pastry
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• Sea salt and black pepper

How To Make Jamie Oliver Air Fryer Squashage Rolls

1. Prep the Squash: Cut the squash into 3cm chunks, toss with dukkah, olive oil, chilli flakes, salt, and pepper, and cook in the air fryer at 180ºC for 30 minutes.
2. Mash & Mix: Let squash cool, then mash. Add grains, crumbled feta, and most of the beaten egg. Mix well and season.
3. Assemble the Roll: Unroll the pastry and place the filling in a sausage shape slightly off-centre. Fold over, seal with eggwash, and fork the edges.
4. Finish the Pastry: Score the top, brush with remaining eggwash, and sprinkle with dukkah.
5. Cook in Batches: Preheat the air fryer to 200ºC. Cut the roll into 4 pieces and cook 2 at a time for 20 minutes until golden and puffed.

Recipe Tips

• Don’t Peel the Squash: The skin softens during roasting and adds texture.
• Cool the Filling: Let squash cool before mixing to avoid soggy pastry.
• Seal with Egg: Use enough eggwash for a tight seal.
• Score Lightly: Light cuts make for even puffing.
• Serve Ideas: Perfect with piccalilli, salad, or in a buffet spread.

What To Serve With Squashage Rolls

These savory rolls pair well with tangy piccalilli, a crisp green salad with vinaigrette, or a warm grain salad with herbs. They’re also great on a party platter alongside dips and crudités.

How To Store Squashage Rolls

Refrigerate: Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
Freeze: Freeze unbaked rolls, then air fry from frozen at 180ºC for 25–30 minutes.
