Use your hands to rub the oil and spices all over the squash, then season. Roast in the oven for 15 mins until soft, sticky and golden. STEP 2 Place the kale in a bowl and stir through the lemon juice to help soften it. STEP 3 Butter the bread, then turn two slices over so they’re butter-side down. Mix the milk with the cheese, then spread over these two slices, adding the kale and squash. Top with the other slices, butter-side up. Press down. STEP 4 Place in a frying pan and cook on a medium-high heat for 5 mins on each side.

VEGAN TWIST

Swap the goat’s cheese and milk for houmous and brush the bread with olive oil rather than spreading it with butter.
