Harlequin squash

 A glowing member of the cucurbit family (cousins of cucumbers and melons). Delivered this week with my organic vegetable box. What a beauty! Almost too good to eat. However, I'll deseed it and then cut into sections, toss in a mix of olive oil, dried chilli flakes, salt and pepper and roast in the oven for about 45 minutes. The flesh scoops off the skin on the plate easily avoiding the tricky business of peeling.
