The shape of some squashes make them awkward to sit evenly on a roasting tray.  If that's the case, roast them upside-down, just snap off the stem and cut the base off instead of the top.  Scoop out the seeds, wash the squash under cold water, season with salt and pepper, add a teaspoon of olive oil, optionally, a smashed clove of garlic and a handful of herbs.  Preheat the oven to 200°C / 400°F / Gas 6 / Moderately hot
