Instead of Pumpkin or butternut squash
PumpkinUse the same weight. It is the closest match and cooks in about the same time, though it can be slightly more watery.
Ash gourdUse the same weight, but drain well and reduce any liquid in the dish; it is much blander and softer.
Sweet potatoUse the same weight. It is sweeter and less watery, so reduce added sugar and check the cooking time, as it softens faster.
