Simple Yet Splendid Winter Squash

Directions

1. 1
   Heat oven to 400 degrees.
2. 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. 3
   Roast for at least 45 minutes, rotating the pan once, after 25 minutes.
4. 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. 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. 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. 7
   Taste and add more salt and/or garam masala if necessary.
