  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • salt and pepper
  • 100 g (3.5 oz) butter

Instructions
 

  • Cut the squash in small dices. Note: most of the time I leave the skin on as it softens during boiling, and adds colour.

  • Mix well in a blender until smooth add the butter and enjoy.

Notes

*Actual cooking time will depend on the size of your squash pieces. You want them to cook to the point that they can be blended.
