Recipe of the Week - 1/24/10Winter Squash with Green Chiles
|
![]() |
I've already made this recipe several times.
It's easy and really good.
I've made it twice
with kabocha squash (a very sweet, flavorful
pumpkin) and once with acorn squash. The
kabocha was definitely my favorite.
It also works well with variations: nutmeg,
allspice, or cumin instead of cinnamon, more or
less chiles, etc.
If your squash is hard to peel, just cut it in
half, scoop the seeds out, and steam it. When
it's soft, scoop the meat out and chop it into chunks.
Then sautee the onion in the butter, then add the
rest of the ingredients.
I think this works fine with any chiles. You
may want to increase the amount of chiles
if you are using mild ones.
