This was very tasty, but it came out very watery. I used barely 1/4 cup of water, and even after cooking it an additional 15 minutes with the lid off it was very watery. But definitely tasty, so next time I'll cut back to 1/8 cup water and see how it goes.

I was craving squash but not one with a lot of added sugar. This recipe hit the spot. Delicious!

Lovely recipe that we enjoyed. Pay strict attention to the amount of squash vs water - follow the recipe and watch how long you cook it. I overcooked mine a wee bit. When I mashed the squash it was a bit too soft - easily remedied I put it in the oven at 375 for 25 minutes - perfect. I used 6 drops of tabasco. Thanks Shirl for adding a lovely side dish to my dinner.
