Ingredients
- 1 medium butternut squash
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- ¼ teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 200 degrees Celsius (390 Fahrenheit, 180 fan oven).
- Cut the butternut squash in half lengthwise.
- Use a spoon to scoop out the seeds and stringy bits, then arrange the halves on a roasting tray lined with kitchen foil.
- Drizzle over the olive oil and sprinkle with salt.
- Roast for 45-55 minutes until the flesh is very soft.
Notes
- The baking time depends entirely on the size of the squash, a small butternut squash is ready in 45 minutes, the bigger you go, the longer the roasting time.
- There is no overbaking here, and I do prefer a very soft flesh, so it's not a big problem if you leave it to roast for a tad longer.
- As it roasts, the edges become caramelized, enhancing its natural sweetness and deliciousness.
