      @Chap we in the U.S. can't afford Pine Nuts (said in jest, but they are incredibly expensive). What else do you do, eat Marcona Almond butter on toast as a snack?

      Pine Nuts we buy usually do come from Sicily… I would think 100gr are about 4-5 €. But you only need a view... Marcona Almonds are about the same.

        Spicy roast Butternut Squash.  I'm going to use this as one of the layers in my Lasagne.  But we often cook as a stand-alone veg to go with Roasts..

        Take one Butternut Squash

        Top and tail, and cut into bits, discard the seeds and pulp

        Chop into small chunks and pop in ziplock, pour in a good slug of olive oil

        Bash up some Dried Chilli's and Coriander Seeds (sometimes I'll add some paprika and/or cumin seeds)

        Pop some salt and pepper and the spices into the ziplock, seal and wait

        I'm not sure whether it actually needs to "marinade", but I always do….

          Butternut Squash - nice and baked

          Assembling

          It is at this point I realise I need white sauce for the top too - and I've already used it all - insert "tosser emoji"

          So there will be an interlude, whilst I go to the supermarket to get Crème fraîche

              For a Béchamel you only need butter, flour and milk, some salt and nutmeg… no Crème fraîche needed  😛

                I'm cheating…..

                But that does remind me, I've used all the nutmeg that I bought last time I was in Oman.  I'm scheduled to be back there in April (effing Covid permitting)......

                        I’m mentally eating the mushroom risotto with char as a starter and the lasagne for a main. For my breakfast.

                          I traded some flour with @Chap  for some Austrian goodies.

                          I think I won  😉

                          Definitely a winner was this deal… wonderful book
