For a richer flavor, try using browned butter instead of olive oil. A squeeze of lemon juice at the end can brighten the flavors. If you prefer a softer squash, cook for an additional 2-3 minutes. Experiment with different types of vinegar, such as apple cider vinegar or balsamic vinegar, for a unique twist.
