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.

I made this recipe for a dinner party and it was a huge success! Everyone loved it. I especially liked the crispy breadcrumb topping.

This dish was a bit too rich for my taste. The brie was very overpowering and it masked the other flavors. I think it would have been better with a different type of cheese.

I thought this recipe was just okay. The flavor was a bit bland for my taste. I think it would have been better if I had added some more spices.

This recipe was a real hit with my family! The combination of sweet, nutty squash, savory leeks, and creamy brie was divine. The gratin was also surprisingly easy to make, and it looked very impressive when it came out of the oven. I will definitely
