  Found this a bit bland and uninteresting but wonder whether we added too much water during the frying stage; thing is, a 'splash' of water didn't last long and the pan became very dry after a minute or two, let alone 15 mins. In the pic, the cubes of squash are still distinguishable, ours became gooey and less attractive than in the pic.

  I liked this and out squash did stay together. My husband thought it was lovely but I found it a little bland. Could do with something else to spice it up a bit.

  I am glad I read your comments before I did this recipe. White wine always does the trick for me, if a dish is a bit bland. And it sure didn't fail with this recipe! I also used some bacon for extra taste. A splash of wine with the squash, let it evaporate and then another splash when I added the mushrooms. I highly recommend to give this recipe another chance!

  Didn't do it for me. A little stodgy and tired and not too much taste.

  Just made this and I thought it was fab. I added a little onion with the squash and garlic at beginning, along with some pine nuts and a pinch of chilli flakes. I used a bit more sage than the recipe said, about a tablepoon, and followed denisebrise's advice and added a splash of wine. I missed out the mushrooms and added some leftover cooked chicken in its place, and added a good tablespoon of cream at the end. Delicious!
