roasted spaghetti squash

Step by Step method

Method

• STEP 1

  Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Cut the squash in half lengthways and scoop out the seeds. Brush a little oil over the cut surface and season with salt and pepper. Put the squash cut-side down on a baking tray lined with baking parchment and roast for 30 mins.

• STEP 2

  Carefully turn the squash halves over and bake for another 15 mins, until tender and starting to caramelise. Leave to cool for 5 mins, then use a fork to pull into long, spaghetti-like strands. Use in place of pasta, in salads, or alongside roasted fish or meat.
