I can't believe no one has rated this recipe yet. I've made this several times since the recipe first appeared in the magazine. It's a great way to prepare butternut squash (with or without the shrimp). Great flavors, nice level of spicness - a curry-like taste. This is a repeat in our house.08/19/08
