Roasted Pumpkin with Chilli and Thyme

 

These colourful and spicy pumpkin slices make a healthy and tasty side dish . You don't have to peel the pumpkin which makes life easy!

The recipe can easily be doubled, or trebled depending on how many mouths there are to feed.

For three people you will need:

400 grams of pumpkin (sliced fairly thinly)
1 tablespoon of olive oil
1 crushed garlic clove
A dash of Hot Samoan Boys chilli sauce
Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Toss everything together and arrange in a single layer in a baking dish. Scatter some fresh thyme leaves over the top.

Bake  at 200 degrees C for about 20 minutes until the pumpkin is cooked through and is slightly browned.
