Step 1

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the melted butter, brown sugar, curry powder, cinnamon, cloves, salt, and pepper. Add the squash and toss well, ensuring everything is nicely coated.

Step 3

Place the squash on the prepared baking sheet drizzle with any remaining butter mixture from in the bowl, and roast for 20–25 minutes. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool. Do not get rid of the parchment-lined baking sheet; you’ll use it shortly to toast the focaccia.

Step 4

While the squash is baking, make the coconut gremolata and the curry mayo. For the gremolata, place the shredded coconut in a small pan over medium-high heat and toast, stirring occasionally. Remove from the heat and transfer to a mixing bowl. Add the coconut chips, herbs, lemon zest, chili flakes, and salt and mix until well combined. Set aside.

Step 5

For the curry mayo, place all the ingredients in a bowl and mix until well combined. Set aside.

Step 6

To assemble, place all four pieces of focaccia on the used baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and place in the preheated oven for 5 minutes or until nicely toasted.

Step 7

Smear a generous amount of curry mayo onto each slice of toasted focaccia, followed by a few pieces of squash. Top with a generous sprinkling of coconut gremolata and enjoy!
