Marrow squash payasa

Well, This is my first "original" recipe.  Haven't found this one anywhere on the net!!!. My hubby keeps boasting about the "only" patent he has on  circuits. Thought why not me do something innovative. Tried this last weekend, came out really good. Now, I can call myself innovative too :)
