butternut squash fries

A very good substitute for Kerela style jackfruit chips.

Peel and cut butternut squash into thick french fry style pieces. Spray(coat) with (olive) oil, salt and chilli powder. Roast in the oven at 450 F for 15-20 minutes on a greased roasting plate.
If not using a roasting plate ( with slits on its surface) you may have to turn the fries once in the oven.

Remove from oven when done and enjoy.
Recipe works with winter squashes. (i have tried acorn squash as well and prefer the butternut variety)
