Trim Squash Ends
Cut off the extremities of the spaghetti squash. You need to use a good knife as the skin is pretty thick.
1
Slice the Squash
Stand the squash upright on the benchtop, placing a chopping board under it, and cut the squash lengthwise to divide it in half.
2
Remove Squash Seeds
Use a tablespoon to scrape out all the spaghetti squash seeds and discard them in your compost.
3
Prepare for Baking
Brush the cut side of each spaghetti squash with olive oil once all the seeds are gone.
4
Cook the Squash
Place each half squash onto a baking tray. Bake the squash for 30-40 minutes in an oven preheated to 400°F (200°C).
5
Scrape the Flesh
Remove from the oven. Let the steam evaporate for 10 minutes. Then hold the squash with one hand and pull apart the spaghetti with a fork.

Put in Dish
Place all the spaghetti strands into a baking dish. Spread evenly to cover the dish. Set aside while making the sauce.
