Ingredients for Roast Squash

• Squash
• ½ teaspoon each of cinnamon, paprika, turmeric, salt, pepper and cumin
• ¼ teaspoon chilli powder.
• 2 serving spoons of nut oil

Method for Roast Squash

1. Peel and cube squash (1 inch cubes)
2. Place spices on to a plate and toast under grill until they release their aromas
3. In a bowl pour 2 serving spoons of nut oil and add the toasted spices
4. Toss squash cubes in the mix until coated and leave to one side while heating the oven to 180 degrees
5. Put the cubes on to a roasting tray and cook in the oven for around 20/30 minutes, turning every ten minutes
6. They should be crisp on outside and yummy soft inside.

Notes:

The aromatic spices are a great way to add flavour to squash which is a fairly bland vegetable. Cooked well with additional flavouring transforms it into something very special.
