Big Squash Dish

A good recipe for the summer squash that grew to big (or winter squash) is Pumpkin Dahl.  The ingredients list includes:  Squash, lentils, onion, ginger, garlic, tumeric and garam masala spice.

I used garlic scapes in this dish and fresh tumeric.  I buy Garam Masala at the Good Food Coop, which is Frontier Herbs I believe.  But you can mix your own if you want.  Cook the lentils (any color you want really).   Meanwhile, peel and dice your ingredients.

(I diced the onions after my photo.)  Saute vegetables and spice in olive oil till onion is transparent.  Stir in cooked lentils, then add soup stock to cover (I used chicken).  Bring to a boil and then simmer till squash is done.

 Serve over rice for dinner.  Then freeze the rest for those winter nights when you don't feel like cooking.  Just thaw, and heat and serve over rice.
