Squash/Pumpkin season is very much here in the UK, roasted to perfection these are one of the best veggies in season, but don't throw the seeds! Separate them from the flesh, clean and dry them, make sure they are thoroughly dry.

Lay on a roasting tray, add 2 teaspoons of rapeseed oil, a large sprinkle of salt flakes and a dusting of smoked paprika, toss together to coat and roast at 200C for 10 - 12 minutes. Great on their own or garnish up soups and salads. Gotta love zero waste!
