Cuban-Style Sweet and Sour Squash with Peppers and Basil
Introduction
In this Cuban dish, a simple mix of vinegar, sugar, garlic and ginger really brings out the flavour of the squash. If you can find cubanelle rather than ordinary pointed peppers (they’re a bit like the long pale green peppers that you can get in Asian grocery stores), then by all means use those instead. I like this as part of a spread of vegetable dishes.
