Squash is usually used for dishes and soup. It is very rare for some to incorporate it with their baked goodies. Squash is very healthy and it is always a good idea to incorporate it with our dishes. The other one of our friend, sent us a whole butternut squash, around 3.4 kg. I was thinking what to do about it. Until today I come up with this easy, soft, delicious and nutritious bread recipe. I'm happy to share it with you. Ingredients 630 grams fresh, chopped squash 3 eggs 180 grams white sugar 250 ml fresh milk 3/4 cup vegetable oil 370 grams flour 1 tsp salt 1 tsp cinnamon powder 1 tsp all spice 1/2 cup chopped walnut Walnut(whole for garnish) Instructions 1. Peel and roughly chop squash. Set aside. 2. Sift and combine all the dry ingredients. 3. In a blender, put half of the chopped squash and 3 eggs. Blend until smooth. Add the remaining squash, if the blender stocked, gradually add milk until your squash mixture becomes smooth. Add vegetable oil and mix for 1 minute more. 4.

Baked Crispy Pork Belly

-
This is a baked pork belly. Very easy to make but it takes time. We use to cook this on weekends when family members gather together for lunch. 
Ingredients
4 pounds pork belly
2 to 3 bay leaves
1 tsp peppercorn
2 tsp salt
2 stalk lemon grass, pressed and cut
4 slices ginger
1.5 L water

Instructions

1. Clean pork belly, remove all the tiny hairs on the skin.
2. Put everything in a pot then filled with water enough to submerged the pork.
3. Simmer for at least 2 hrs or until fork tender.
4. Remove from the pot and drain. Right after removing from the pot, poke pork skin with fork as many as you. This helps the skin to pop up and crispy when baking. For a crispier texture I used to keep the pork open in the chiller for overnight.
5. Bake at 365°F for 1 hr & 30mins. You don't need to achieve the super crispy skin because right after the oven, dunk the pork belly on a boiling hot oil, skin side down. This takes aroung 1 minute or less just right to pop up the skin. Remove from heat and rest for 10minutes before cutting.
6. Serve with our favorite dipping sauce
3 tbsp soy sauce
2 tbsp vinegar
1 tsp liquid seasing
Black pepper
Diced onion
Chopped Hot red chili
