This makes a nice change from the usual butternut stuffed with spinach and feta. The umami-rich flavour of the miso works so well with the sweetness of this favourite South African vegetable.

Method:

Halve and de-pip the butternuts.

Mix the garlic, miso, honey, oils and chilli flakes in a bowl and stir to combine.

Place each butternut half on a piece of foil and brush liberally with the miso mixture.

Wrap the butternuts with foil and place in the coals for 30 – 40 minutes, or until cooked through and soft when pierced with a knife.

Carefully remove from the coals, remove the butternut from the foil and serve garnished with sesame seeds and fresh coriander.
