Baked Gem Squash with sweetcorn

This is one of my all time favorites, and is a great accompaniment to roasts and grills. 💛💛💛

Ingredients

2 gem squash (cut in half and cleaned)

100 ml sweetcorn (can use cream style or normal corn)

100 ml grated cheddar cheese

20 ml butter/margarine (optional)

2 tsp salt

1 tsp pepper
½ tsp cayenne pepper

½ tsp mixed herbs

Method

1. Add the cut gems to a pot of boiling water and add a teaspoon of salt while it boils for about 10-15 mins.

2. Once the gems are soft inside, remove and put into a oven proof dish.

3. Sprinkle some salt and pepper inside each and add a small ½ tsp of butter in each (butter is optional).

4. Add some sweetcorn into each gem squash, sprinkle little salt and pepper on top.

5. Add cheese on top, sprinkle with cayenne pepper and mixed herbs.

6. Bake at 200 degrees celsius until cheese melts, and then about 2 mins on grill to brown the cheese slightly.

Serve alone or with roasted chicken, lamb or grills, either way I am sure you will enjoy this one 😃😋
