Ingredients

For the sauce

Directions

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 200°C (400°F).

  2. 2

    Carefully cut the squash in half using a sharp knife (sideways! It will result in longer “spaghetti”). Scoop out the seeds with a spoon.

  3. 3

    Drizzle the inside of the squash with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper.

  4. 4

    Place the squash halves face-down on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

  5. 5

    Roast in the oven for 30-40 minutes, until the flesh is tender and easily pierced with a fork.

  6. 6

    Once cooked, use a fork to scrape the inside of the squash into spaghetti-like strands. Be gentle as you want to keep the length of the strands intact.

  7. 7

    Toss with your favourite sauce, I used my easy vegan lentil ragù recipe. I am not exaggerating: it was AMAZING
