Method
1
Preheat the oven to gas 7, 220°C, fan 200°C. Tip the swede onto a baking tray and toss with half the oil; season. Roast for 35-40 mins until golden and tender.

Meanwhile, boil the eggs for 6 mins. Transfer to iced water; once cool, peel and halve; set aside.

Heat the remaining oil in a frying pan over a medium heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, for 5-6 mins until soft. Stir in the curry paste, then add the coconut milk, lime juice and a pinch of salt. Bring to the boil, then reduce to a simmer and add the spinach. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 1-2 mins until wilted. Stir in the roasted swede.
