Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.

BUTTERNUT SQUASH, ROSEMARY AND GRAPE BAKE
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375°F. Grease a 9 x 13-inch baking dish. Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add half the squash and season liberally with salt and pepper. Cook stirring occasionally, until browned, about 5 to 7 minutes, then transfer to the baking dish. Repeat browning of remaining squash with another tablespoon of olive oil and more salt and pepper. Transfer to baking dish. Heat another tablespoon of the oil in the skillet and add the onion and rosemary. Season with salt and pepper and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Pour in the broth and scrape up any browned bits on the bottom. Bring to a simmer and pour into baking dish. Cover with foil and bake until squash is very tender, about 40 minutes. Raise the oven temperature to 450°F. Remove the dish from the oven and take off the foil. Sprinkle the grapes over the top. In a medium bowl, mix together the breadcrumbs, Parmesan and remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle over the squash. Bake until top is browned and bubbling, or about 10 to 15 minutes longer.
Tips:
- Choose the right butternut squash: Look for a squash with a deep orange color and firm, smooth skin. Avoid any squash with soft spots or blemishes.
- Use a sharp knife to peel and cut the squash: This will help to prevent the squash from becoming stringy.
- Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the squash: This will help the squash to cook evenly.
- Season the squash with salt and pepper to taste: This will help to bring out the flavor of the squash.
- Use a variety of cheeses in the gratin: This will help to create a rich and flavorful dish.
- Don't overcook the gratin: The squash should be tender, but still slightly firm.
- Serve the gratin immediately: This will help to ensure that the dish is hot and bubbly.
Conclusion:
Butternut squash gratin is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a fall meal. With its creamy, cheesy sauce and crispy breadcrumb topping, this gratin is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
