Wendell's Kabocha


This is Chef Keoni Chang's recipe that Wendell found at the Foodland website here. It actually came out kinda not-too-tender at first and Wendell had to recook it. We ate it with some yuzu sauce that Wendell got from Marukai, and it was good.

Here just to let you all know that I am still breathing. As for the recipe, it looks good. But I would always prefer some meat or seafood added. I don't like all veggie meals. It leaves me way too hungry in the morning.
