I would say roasting. Here is a recipe, hope this helps. * 3 medium butternut or acorn squash, cut in half, seeds removed * 6 tablespoons butter, cut into pieces and softened * 1/2 cup maple syrup * Freshly grated nutmeg * Freshly ground black pepper Pre-heat the oven to 400°F. Place butternut squash halves on a large baking sheet with the cut-side up. Divide the butter pieces among all six halves, smearing it all over the cut side of the squash. Drizzle each half with maple syrup and season with freshly grated nutmeg and ground black pepper. Roast the squash for 40-60 minutes, or until the flesh is tender when poked with a fork. You can serve each person a whole half each or you can scoop out the flesh into a serving bowl – whatever makes you and yours happy.
After peeling and de-pipping them, cut them in to sizable squares Pan fry them in a little cooking oil until they are brownish and then add only a little water to let them simmer to perfection. Add a pinch of salt and just before they are completely done and soft, remove from heat and drain th water. Now mix a little milk, about one table spoon full of ordinary cake flour and a little yellow food colouring together so that it forms a runny paste. Add that to the butternut and stir. Add more milk if needed and allow to simmer until the flour thickens the sauce. Add some sugar and there you have it… Butternut in custard sauce….. The only way my grandchildren would eat it…
