Momosita's Scallop Squash (Patty Pan) Gratin image

This is a wonderful way to use your CSA veggies or abundance of home garden veggies. My 10 month old gobbles this up faster than anything! Alternatively you can use Italian breadcrumbs and omit the oregano and basil. Enjoy!

Time 45m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

12 small scallop squash
2 tablespoons butter
1 small onion, diced
1 garlic clove, minced
3/4 cup sweet corn
1/8 teaspoon paprika
1 pinch sugar
salt and pepper (I use garlic salt)
handful chopped cherry tomatoes (the sweeter, the better)
3/4 cup breadcrumbs
2 eggs
1/4 teaspoon oregano
1/4 teaspoon basil
1/4 cup parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Cut off tops of squash and use a melon baller or sharp teaspoon to scoop out the middle and reserve.
  • Boil the squash covered in 1 inch of water for 2 minutes.
  • Line the bottom of a small casserole dish with the squash bottoms and set aside the tops.
  • Melt the butter in a pan and saute the onion and garlic for 2 minutes. Add the corn and continue cooking until soft. Add salt, pepper, paprika and sugar.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the chopped tomatoes, breadcrumbs, eggs, oregano and basil.
  • Add the sauteed vegetables to the breadcrumb mixture. Mix gently and then spoon it over the tops of the squash (they will be overflowing).
  • Sprinkle the parmesan cheese over the top and replace the squash tops.
  • Bake for 30 minutes.

This dish was a bit too rich for my taste, but it was still very good. The scallops were cooked perfectly and the squash was delicious. The gratin was also a nice touch, but I think it would have been better if it had been a bit lighter.

I thought this recipe was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

This dish was a bit too complicated for me. I had a hard time following the instructions and my dish didn't turn out very well. I think I'll stick to simpler recipes in the future.

I'm not sure what went wrong with my dish, but it was a disaster. The scallops were overcooked and the squash was undercooked. The gratin was also a mess. I will not be making this recipe again.

This dish was a disappointment. The scallops were rubbery and the squash was mushy. The gratin was also a mess. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

I thought this dish was just okay. The scallops were a bit overcooked and the squash was bland. The gratin was also a bit too cheesy for my taste. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.
