Unusual recipes for butternut squash?

It’s not terribly unusual, but anything you can do with pumpkin, you can do with butternut squashes. There’s pie, of course, but also things like curries. Yum.

You can do a Thai coconut milk, curry, tofu, veggie dish using cubed squash. Something like this. I’ve made something similar and it was delicious.

Slice it up and serve between two sesame seed buns with special sauce.

Is that unusual enough?

There was a butternut squash soup recipe that my mom got from the Internet. It was a really ling recipe and I don’t remember it. tWas good, verily.

Yeah, as @PooperDood says, there’s definitely some great soup recipes out there! I think I have one at home somewhere, and if so I’ll send it your way.

My housemate recently turned hers into gnocchi.

Sauté it up with a little garlic and cinnamon. Purée and use as pizza sauce. Top with your choice of cheese. (Prosciutto optional.) Garnish with arugula and pickled red onions. Drizzle with balsamic vinegar. Yummers.

Barbagiuans are delicious! I once made them using refrigerated crescent roll dough instead of making the pastry, and that was even better. Yum, yum.

I am like you I usually make some sort of soup or roast pieces.

When there is too much to use I cut it into chunks and freeze it. Then whenever I make a stew or veg soup or anything I want thickened I throw a couple of the chunks in. When it is cooked for a longish period of time it breaks down and makes a great thickener instead of flour or corn starch.

Here’s a pumpkin soup recipe I tried recently… it’s unique—spicy and delicious! You can make this with butternut squash as well.

hehehe, that would probably sound great if I recognized the ingredients!!! I will have to wait until I get near an Indian grocery store. But I bet I would love it if I tasted it.

On one of the main streets in Darwin there is a tiny little Indian restaurant. I start to drool from a block away because the smells are so good! I usually eat there at least once when I go into town.
