Hey Peeps,
If you have little individual sized squashes of whatever variety that, like me are visibly 'not going to store for too much longer' (that came out wrong! I'M GOING TO STORE FOR AGES, but the Little Gems aren't...)
Halve them, scoop out the seeds and roast them (or steam them) until 'only just' tender.
Then, make a dead easy peasy oven-baked Risotto (see Delia) for supper, but make twice the quantity. Stuff the only-just tender squash halves with the risotto mix and then FREEZE THEM ! DOH !
Really worth a go, they're delicious.
So far, I've done ones with Wild Mushroom & Dry Madeira Risotto, and ones with a Leek, Butternut & Sage Risotto.
The possibilities are 'endless'...

Dear All,
A word of warning, if you are planning to microwave squash (which BTW they do very well) it is VERY IMPORTANT that you pierce the squash right through to the hollow in the middle.
My neighbour forgot one day and blew the door off the microwave when the squash exploded. Michael Caine would have been proud of her!
