Roasted squash

Side Serves 4 50 min
Soft and sweet, this recipe makes a warm, comforting side. It's good as a simple supper with sausages and something green; or dressed, with puy lentils, feta and salad leaves; or liquidised with a bit of stock for a quick and easy soup. Add other root veg if you have them lying around – parsnips, carrots and beetroot.

  • 1 squash
  • 2 onions, sliced
