What You Need
Ingredients
Preparation
*This recipe originally ran in the US on HexClad.com.
- Preheat the oven to 425°F/220°C Slice squash in half lengthwise. Using a metal spoon, scoop out and discard seeds. Place one piece of squash cut side down on a work surface and arrange one chopsticks along each side. (This will allow you to slice the squash without cutting the whole way through). Slice crosswise making each slice about ½ cm/scant ¼-inch apart along the length of the squash, making sure to not cut through completely. Repeat with second squash half.
- Brush bottom of HexClad Small Hybrid Roasting Pan (don’t use the rack) with oil. Arrange squash hasselback side up in prepared pan. In a medium bowl, whisk oil, harissa, sugar, 1 ½ teaspoons salt, and ½ teaspoon black pepper together and brush over the squash, making sure that some of it goes into the cuts as well.
- Bake until the squash is tender and golden in spots, 60 to 70 minutes. Top with cilantro and red chilli and serve.
