Thursday: a noteworthy side

We had some butternut squash from the biokiste in the fridge that needed to be used up. Last night I used that as a side to go with the leftover lentils and greens from Wednesday.

I started by cooking some butter until it just started to turn brown, for the last minute or so I added some sage leaves. Once the butter was ready I added the squash (1cm dice) and a pinch of salt. This I let cook for another minute or two, then reduced the heat, added a small splash (maybe 1Tbs) of water, covered it, and let it simmer until the squash was cooked through (stirring every so often). For the last couple of minutes I ground in some white pepper.

This is a very nice combination of flavors.
