| Place water and
rice in a medium size pot, place over high heat
and bring to a boil. Cover and let simmer for
40 minutes.
Pour rice into a colander and rinse
until all the starch is out and the water runs
clear.
Sauté squash with olive
oil, cinnamon, cayenne pepper, and salt in a large
sauté pan until browned but still firm.
Let squash cool completely.
Combine rice, raisins, orange juice,
and scallions in a bowl.
Gently fold squash into rice mixture
so it doesn’t break a part.
