- Rinse squash.
- Cut 4 to 5 slits through the skin, using the tip of a sharp knife.
- Transfer squash into microwave-oven, onto a rack or over an upside-down saucer.
- Microwave on 'HIGH' for 6 to 10 minutes, according to the size of the squash.
- Using a towel as it is really hot, remove squash from oven.
- Leave squash to rest for 10 to 15 minutes.
- Half squash; remove seeds and membranes [the use of a spoon makes it easier].
- Then, either mash meat with brown sugar or maple syrup and butter right inside each squash half or into a long dish; cover each squash halves or dish with wax paper.
- Just before serving, reheat on 'HIGH' for 5 to 6 minutes.
