This recipe was a waste of time. The squash was tough and the ginger was too strong.

This dish was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I still liked it. I think I'll try it again with less ginger next time.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover butternut squash. I added a bit of brown sugar and cinnamon to give it a sweeter flavor.
