Simple Yet Splendid Winter Squash

• 1 medium butternut squash, halved (slice ends off, first)
• Oil to coat the baking pan
• 1/4 - 1/2 cup almond milk (preferably homemade)
• 2 -3 pinches garam masala
• Salt to taste

1. Heat oven to 400 degrees.
2. Lightly oil a rimmed baking sheet large enough to hold the two halves of squash. Place them cut side down on the baking sheet.
3. Roast for at least 45 minutes, rotating the pan once, after 25 minutes.
4. Let the squash cool until it's comfortable to handle. Then, remove the seeds and gooey orange fibers adhering to them with a spoon, scraping clean the cavity on each half.
5. Peel and put the roasted squash into a medium-large bowl; mash thoroughly. (If you want this pureed, put it in a food processor and blitz until smooth, about 3 minutes, scraping after the 1st and 2d minutes.)
6. Warm the almond milk gently in a microwave oven or in a small pan on the stove. Add to the squash, and then sprinkle on the garam masala and a good pinch of salt. Stir well to combine.
7. Taste and add more salt and/or garam masala if necessary.
8. Enjoy!! ;o)
