    Can substitute sweet potatoes for squash.

    Dhansak is the one I always order when out because it seems difficult to get right at home. This recipe was close, however butternut squash was hard to cook without the sauce catching. Next time I'll steam, then add or use sweet potato. I did have to fiddle with the sugar and tamarind and it still didn't seem dead on. I'll use jaggery next time and see if it gives the sweet a better edge. Will do again before using an alternative recipe.
