Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 400ºF. Heat the oil and butter in a large frying pan, add the allspice, cinnamon, and squash. Season well with salt and pepper, and cook over medium-low heat (stirring occasionally) for 15 minutes or until the squash begins to soften.

2. Add the chestnuts and stir so they are coated with the oil. Cook over low heat for 5-10 minutes, then add the cranberries and cook 5-10 minutes longer, until the cranberries begin to burst.

3. Taste the season again, if needed, adding a little sugar if the cranberries are too tart (then cook a few minutes longer, until the sugar has dissolved).
