Hi Aunt Clara, I recently purchased your cook book, I love it and cannot wait to start cooking! The pictures are very helpful as well.

I was looking at your recipe for Lentejas and see that it includes potatoes and gem squash cut into small cubes. I assume that I should bake the squash and potatoes first, is that right? I am sorry if this is a stupid question!

Thank you for your help,

Yasmin

It isn't a stupid question, actually sounds like a great idea.

But in the Dominican version of this recipe the squash and potatoes are boiled in the lentil "stew".
