INGREDIENTS
- 1 medium squash (I like using delicata here)
- 1/4 cup fresh goat cheese
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
- A few tablespoons salsa macha
- Salt
- 1 to 2 tablespoons cilantro for garnish
- Warm corn tortillas
INSTRUCTIONS
Wrap each half of squash in plastic wrap and poke a few holes. Microwave at 100 percent power for about 7-8 minutes or until soft. In a small (7- to 8-inch) skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. As the foaming begins to subside, pay close attention: when the butter has turned nut brown and foaming has subsided, remove the skillet from the heat.
Cut the delicata into ½-inch cubes, skin and all. Add the squash and salsa macha to the pan, raise the heat to medium-high and bring the sauce to a brisk simmer. Cook until the butternut is fork-tender, about 15 minutes. Taste and season with salt, usually about ½ teaspoon.
Scoop the mixture into warm tortillas and finish with a generous sprinkling of the goat cheese and cilantro.
