3 tbsp unsalted butter
3 tbsp heavy cream

Chef's tip
Season to taste - salt substitutes can taste bitter in larger amounts, so start with less.
¼ tsp black pepper

For serving

1 tbsp fresh chives, thinly sliced (optional)

Instructions

1
Preheat the oven to 400°F (205°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil.
2
Brush the cut sides of the squash halves with the olive oil and place them cut-side down on the prepared baking sheet. Roast for 30–35 minutes, until the flesh is completely tender when pierced with a fork and the cut edges are lightly caramelized.
