Halloween Leftovers - Roasted Pumpkin Seeds!

Halloween Leftovers - Roasted Pumpkin Seeds!

Ingredients:
seeds, pumpkin and squash seeds, whole, roasted, without salt
salt, table
oil, olive, salad or cooking

Directions:
Preheat oven to 170C
Place pumpkin seeds in a pan of salted water and boil the pumpkin seeds for 10 minutes.
This helps the salty flavour penetrate the seed, rather than just being salty on the outside :)
Drizzle olive oil onto an oven tray large enough to accomodate your seeds
Drain the pumpkin seeds well, drying them on a paper towel to absorb excess moisture
Pour the seeds onto the oven tray, shaking them around to distribute the olive oil onto the seeds
Roast the seeds for 10 minutes (maybe less, dependent on size), then turn them over and roast for a further 10 minutes
Remove from oven and serve hot or cold.
They taste a bit like salted pistachios, with a similarly satisfying crunch :) nice as a side dish or just to snack on.
