Fug Tong Gang Buad Squash Cooked in Coconut Milk
#9
  Re: (...)
Sharon found this recipe on Foodgawker and I finally made it today. It was very good, but I am a bit confused about the directions. After following the directions, the squash was floating in a soup. I wasn't sure if I was to serve with a slotted spoon, or what. I ended up draining off quite a bit of the liquid and roughly mashing the squash. Has anyone else made this yet?

Fug Tong Gang Buad Squash Cooked in Coconut Milk!

Serves 4

1/2 teaspoon salt
2 cups pumpkin, or other yellow meat squash
1/3 cup palm sugar
1/2 cup coconut milk
1 cup water

Peel the squash, chop into 1/2 in. dice. Add all ingredients to 3 qt saucepan and heat over medium until steam rises rapidly. Do not allow to boil, the coconut milk will curdle. Turn heat down to medium low, stirring occasionally. When it starts to simmer turn to low heat. Remove from heat when squash is tender, about 20-25 minutes. Serve immediately or cover with lid. Tastes equally good warm, room temp, or cold.

Interesting...maybe it was to be a soup? Was the broth tasty or bland?

The broth was sweet. I hated to pour it all down the drain, so I left a bit and mashed up the squash. It was still very soupy. I just felt that I did something wrong, but I did follow the directions. I was hoping Sharon had made it and would have some words of wisdom.

I haven't made it yet - but I went back to FoodGawker and looked.

Does this help??? It seems to show some broth. It sure sounds good and I am planning on making this very soon. I have a butternut that I think will be perfect for this. [Image: DSCN9343+-+pumpkin+in+coconut+milk.jpg]

This does help, though I wonder, are those sesame seeds sprinkled on top?
