About

I love the sweet heat of chilli against the clean taste of healthy spinach and squash. Peanuts (from a packet is fine) finish off the whole salad beautifully. Try this with spicy roast chicken or pork.

Ingredients

1 kg (2 lb 4 oz) butternut squash, halved, deseeded and cut into 1cm (½ in) wide slices

Method

Preheat the oven to 200°C/400°F/gas mark 6.
Place the squash on a baking sheet. Drizzle with the oil, season, then sprinkle with the sugar. Turn over with your hands, making sure the squash gets well coated with the oil.
