WINTER SQUASH, LEEK AND FARRO GRATIN WITH FETA AND MINT



Winter Squash, Leek and Farro Gratin With Feta and Mint image

A delicious, and simple, winter squash gratin. This tastes like the filling of many Greek winter squash pies I have made, but it is a simpler dish. The squash is roasted, which gives it great depth of flavor. I love the sweetness of the squash against the salty feta, and the chewy farro against the tender squash. Most of the elements for this gratin can be prepared ahead if you want to go about this piecemeal - farro freezes well and keeps for a few days in the refrigerator; roasted squash keeps well in the refrigerator for a few days as well.

Time 1h20m

Yield Serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 pounds winter squash, peeled and cut in small dice (about 1/2 inch)
Salt and freshly ground pepper
4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 pound leeks (2 large), white and light green parts only, cleaned and chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
3 to 4 tablespoons chopped fresh mint, or 1 to 2 tablespoons dried mint (to taste)
3 eggs
3 ounces feta, crumbled
3/4 cup cooked faro

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 425 degrees. Oil a 2-quart baking dish or gratin. Line a sheet pan with parchment. Place squash on baking sheet, season with salt and pepper, and add 2 tablespoons olive oil. Toss squash until evenly coated with oil. Place in oven and roast until tender and lightly colored, about 25 to 30 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes. Remove from oven and set aside. Turn heat down to 375 degrees.
  • Heat another tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat in a large, heavy skillet and add leeks. Cook, stirring, until they begin to soften, about 2 minutes. Add a generous pinch of salt and continue to cook, stirring often, until tender, another 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in garlic and cook, stirring, until fragrant, 30 seconds to a minute. Add squash and mint to pan and toss together. Remove from heat.
  • In a large bowl beat eggs. Add salt to taste (remembering that feta is very salty) and feta, and beat together until feta has broken up into eggs. Stir in squash and leek mixture and farro. Scrape into oiled baking dish. Drizzle remaining oil over top.
  • Bake 35 minutes, or until lightly browned. Remove from heat. Serve hot, warm or room temperature.

HONEYNUT SQUASH, LEEK, AND BRIE GRATIN



Honeynut Squash, Leek, and Brie Gratin image

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Casserole Recipes

Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 tablespoons unsalted butter, plus more for dish
2 medium leeks, sliced into thin rounds, well washed (2 1/2 cups)
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1/2 cup dry vermouth
1/3 cup panko breadcrumbs
6 no-bake lasagna noodles (4 ounces), broken roughly into thirds
1 honeynut squash or 1/2 butternut squash (10 ounces), peeled, halved, seeded, and cut into 1/4-inch slices
4 ounces Brie, finely chopped (about 1 cup)
1 1/3 cups low-sodium vegetable broth, such as Swanson
1/3 cup heavy cream
Salad greens, such as romaine and endive, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees; butter a 10-inch, 1 1/2-quart gratin dish. In a skillet, cook 2 tablespoons butter, leeks, and a pinch of salt over medium-high heat, stirring, until soft, 8 minutes. Add vermouth; cook until mostly evaporated, 1 to 2 minutes. In another pan, melt remaining butter. Toss with panko; season with salt and pepper.
  • Scatter half of pasta, leeks, squash, and cheese in gratin dish. Season with salt and pepper; repeat with remaining half of each. Pour broth and cream evenly over top; cover with parchment-lined foil and bake until squash is tender, 25 minutes. Sprinkle panko mixture over gratin. Bake, uncovered, until golden and bubbly, 20 to 25 minutes. Let cool 10 minutes; serve with greens.

Tips:

  • Choose the right squash: Honeynut squash is the ideal choice for this gratin, as it has a sweet and nutty flavor that pairs well with the leeks and Brie. If you can't find honeynut squash, you can substitute butternut squash or acorn squash.
  • Roast the squash before assembling the gratin: Roasting the squash brings out its natural sweetness and helps it to hold its shape in the gratin. Be sure to toss the squash with olive oil and season it with salt and pepper before roasting.
  • Use high-quality Brie: The Brie is a key ingredient in this gratin, so it's important to use a good-quality cheese. Look for a Brie that is creamy and flavorful, with a slightly runny center.
  • Don't overcook the gratin: The gratin is done when the squash is tender and the Brie is melted and bubbly. Overcooking the gratin will make the squash mushy and the Brie tough.

Conclusion:

This gratin is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a fall or winter meal. The combination of roasted squash, leeks, and Brie is sure to please everyone at the table. Serve the gratin with a side salad or roasted vegetables for a complete meal.
