Time 2h5m

Categories     side dish

Time 30m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 butternut squash (about 3 pounds)
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese

Steps:

Cut in half lengthwise again; then cut crosswise into 1/2-inch slices.
  • Put the squash slices in a large saucepan and cover with tepid tap water. Bring to a boil; reduce the heat and boil gently for 3 to 4 minutes, until tender. Drain in a colander and transfer to a gratin dish with the rest of the ingredients. Mix well.
  • If squash is prepared in advance, reheat in a 425-degree oven for 15 minutes, until hot and lightly browned on top. Serve.

  • Allow the gratin to cool for about 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
  • Enjoy!
