    This is a great recepie. First time I tried it I did not have tarragon but nobody could tell the difference. It is a one pot meal with a good salad and a glass of wine. Also very easy to make.

    My husband declared this as the best side dish I've ever served with steak. Much more than the sum of its parts! Very easy to make and incredibly tasty.

    I used a butternut squash instead of pumpkin and served the mustard cream in a separate jug. It took more than twice as long for the vegetables to cook and they didn't appear "roasted" but were tasty and I reckon this amount would easily feed 8 people.
