Recipes
There are many ways of cooking squash, these are some of my favourites. The first one uses a Blue Banana squash, because I just happened to have photos of this one, but obviously many other varieties are suitable. Just experiment!

First, peel your squash. The peeler in the photo is a Powerlance and is the best one I've ever used. www.kitchengadgets.com.au

Cut the peeled squash into chunks, coat with olive oil and seasoning. Roast in a hottish oven for about 45 minutes.
Mmmm........delicious!
V-slicer
I use a V-slicer a lot. The one I have is made by Borner, but there are many types available. I shred the squash into 'matchsticks', fry some onion in olive oil then add the squash and cook for a few minutes. This is delicous served with rice or pasta. |
Soup

The soup opposite was made with Tonda Padana, onion, potato and carrot. I also added a cupful of lentils and pastina. I don't weigh or measure the vegetables and my soups never taste the same twice! |
