CARAMELIZED ONION SPAGHETTI SQUASH CASSEROLE RECIPE - (3.9/5)



CARAMELIZED ONION SPAGHETTI SQUASH CASSEROLE Recipe - (3.9/5) image

Provided by sz8jm9

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 medium spaghetti squash
2 cups (2 medium) chopped yellow onions
1 cup chopped baby Portobello mushrooms
1 cup tomato sauce
1/2 cup water
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil + extra to coat pan
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
3 eggs, whisked

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat the oven to 400°F and grease an 8x8 casserole dish with olive oil. 2. Cut the spaghetti squash in half lengthwise, scoop out the seeds and place the squash cut-side down on a baking sheet. Bake for 45 minutes, until the skin of the squash is fork tender. 3. While the squash is baking, prepare the caramelized onions and mushrooms. Heat the olive oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat, then add the onions and mushrooms. Lower the temperature to medium and cook the onions and mushrooms until beginning to brown, stirring occasionally to prevent burning, for around 10 minutes. Add the water to the pan and stir the onions and mushrooms to pick up the brown bits in the bottom of the pan. Cook the onions and mushrooms for 8-10 minutes, until there is no more water in the pan. 4. Remove the squash from the oven, scoop out the flesh and place it in the casserole dish. Stir in the caramelized mushrooms,onions, tomato sauce and garlic powder. Add the whisked eggs to the baking dish and mix everything together until you can no longer see the eggs. 5. Bake uncovered for 1 hour in the oven, until the top of the casserole has formed a crust that looks like cheese and is brown around the edges. Let rest for 10 minutes before serving.

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use a variety of onions: yellow, white, and red. Chop them finely before cooking to release more flavor.
  • Cook the onions slowly over low heat. Use a heavy pot such as a Dutch oven as it distributes heat evenly. This will help to caramelize the onions and bring out their sweetness.
  • Do not crowd the onions in the pot or pan. If there is not enough space for them to spread out and brown, they will steam instead of fry. Cook in batches if necessary.
  • Deglaze the pan with a flavorful liquid like white wine, dry vermouth, or beef broth. This will enhance the flavor of the onions and add depth to your dish.
  • Season the spaghetti generously with salt and black pepper and add some red pepper flakes for a little heat. Finish with a sprinkle of chopped fresh parsley.
  • To make the recipe vegetarian, use vegetable broth instead of chicken broth.

Conclusion:

This Spaghetti with Onions recipe is simple, yet flavorful and satisfying. It showcases the deliciousness of caramelized onions. By following the tips above, you can easily make a dish that will please everyone at your table. Enjoy!
