    Preheat your oven to 200°C/Fan 180°C/Gas 6. Trim the squash and slice it in half. Scoop out the seeds (see our tip below) and slice the squash into small chunks. Peel the red onion and cut it into thick wedges. Add the squash and onion to a large roasting tin and toss with 1 tbsp olive oil and a little salt and pepper. Slide into the oven and roast for 30-40 mins, turning halfway, till tender and slightly browned at the edges.
