Directions:
- The kabocha is a round squash with a hard, inedible green rind and deep grooves that divide the squash into lobes. Slice the kabocha in half and then cut through the grooves, dividing each half into its separate lobes.
- Using a carrot peeler or similar tool, peel away the rind, exposing the orange flesh of the squash. Throw away the seeds and the rind.
- Cut the orange flesh of the squash into rough 1-1/2 inch chunks and place in the basket of a steamer (or the steaming basket of a wok).
- Steam for approximately 45 minutes.
- Mash the still warm steamed squash into a coarse consistency, mix with the syrop and margarine, and blend. The result will be less smooth than frozen squash, but sweeter and with a taste similar to chestnuts.
- Serve warm as a side dish with either spicy vegetarian foods, grilled or steamed fish, or grilled meats.
