The message
from "Robert" contains these words:

What's the best way to cook and use it please?


I like to cut them in half (around the middle, not lengthwise), take a
thin slice off the ends so that it will stand upright in the oven, scoop
out the seeds, make a mince/onion/mushroom/gravy mix and stuff the
hollow fruit, sprinkle with grated cheese, cover top with aluminium foil
and bake in a medium oven until soft (time depends upon size of fruit).
Serve in a large bowl with chips or whatever takes yer fancy. Oddly, I
had a photo of a baked vegspag on the computer until last week, when I
deleted it :-(


The Portuguese make a jam which is used in desserts, and can be used as
a time-saving compromise for recipes which call for 'egg threads'.
