To slice the pumpkin in half, insert a sharp knife through the middle along one side, spin the pumpkin over without removing the knife and slice through the other side. Scoop the seeds out. Use the pumpkin hollow as a bowl to make a paste with the sugar, salt and 2 tablespoons of olive oil, then rub into the pumpkin halves. Pull the hot baking tray out and carefully line the base with a sheet of baking pater. Drizzle another 2 tablespoons of olive oil across the middle of the baking tray and lay the pumpkin halves, face side down, across the oily bits. Transfer to the over and roast for 40-50 minutes, until a fork can be poked through the top of the skin. With 15 minutes to go, wrap the macadamia nuts in a clean tea towel. Use a rolling pin, pestle or the bottom of a bottle to crush the nuts up a bit. Tip the crushed nuts into a cold frying pan. Add the butter and remaining 1 teaspoon olive oil and place over medium heat. Squash the olives between your thumb and forefinger to split them in half and pop out the pits. Toss the pitted olives and the sage into the butter mixture and gently sizzle for about 2-3 minutes, until the butter has turned as nut-brown as the nuts. When the pumpkin is ready, pile the nut mixture into the pumpkin hollows, drizzling any left-over buttery sauce around the pumpkin. Garnish with extra sage, season and serve.
