Ingredients
  

  • 1 butternut squash, the one I used was 1.5 kilos, about 3 lbs
  • coarse salt, as desired

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 220 C (425 F). Spray a wire rack with non stick spray and place on baking sheet.
  • Peel the squash, cut the ends off, then cut the round part off from the straight part.
  • Cut the round part and straight parts in half lengthwise. Scoop out the seeds from the round parts.
  • Use a straight knife or crinkle knife and slice the parts into fries.
  • Place the fries on the rack and sprinkle with sea salt as desired.
  • Bake for 20 minutes then use tongs to carefully turn the fries over, bake again for about 20 minutes or until they are tender.
  • Sprinkle with additional salt as desired, serve and enjoy as a side dish with your favorite dipping sauce such as ketchup, sriracha, mayo, etc.
