Cooked butternut is sweet, soft and surprisingly satisfying and filling. The flavour works perfectly with the soft cooked Mediterranean vegetables in the Pisto.

- PUT IT TOGETHER
- 1. With a sharp knife cut the squashes in half from top to bottom and using a spoon remove the seeds. Place the squash flesh side up on a baking tray and generously brush with olive oil, season with salt and pepper and place in a pe heated oven 160°c for 25 minutes or until the squash has softened and started to brown
- 2. Cut the tomato segments into dice and mix with the diced cheese, piquillo peppers and chorizo if you are using it.
- 3. Remove the squash from the oven, fill the cavity with Pisto and then sprinkle the entire surface of the squash with the cheese and tomato mix
- 4. Return to the oven and bake until bubbling and golden brown
- 5. If you are using the herb crumb sprinkle over the squash and bake till the crumb starts to colour - this is just adding texture and a hint of garlic
