Ingredients:

  • 1/4 tsp cumin seed
  • 1/2 tsp turmeric
  • 3/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper (optional)
  • 1/3 cup water
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 2 tbsp sugar

Directions:

  1. Peel and cut squash in half. (If it's too hard, zap squash in microwave for a couple minutes to make life easier). Scoop out and discard insides. Cut into 1-inch pieces, rinse, drain and set aside.
  2. Heat oil in a frying pan on medium high heat. Add cumin and fenugreek seeds and cook for a few seconds until seeds are golden brown.
  3. Add chopped squash, turmeric, salt, coriander, cayenne (if using), and water. Stir, cover and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer 15 - 18 minutes until squash is soft to the touch. Stir occasionally.
  4. Add lemon juice and sugar. Mash squash with a large spoon or potato masher and simmer 5 - 7 minutes.
