Found this one in my "stash." Cook time includes time to prepare and cook the squash. This could be done in advance.

Time 2h12m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 -2 1/2 lb spaghetti squash
9 fresh sage leaves, 6 of the leaves finely chopped
1 garlic clove, minced and crushed to a paste
2 1/2 cups gruyere cheese, grated (about 8 ounces)

butter

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Cut the squash in half lengthwise and place halves, flesh side down, in a baking dish with enough hot water to come 1/4-inch up the sides of the squash.

  • Scrape along the pulp with a fork and pull out and reserve shreds. Rub the bottom of a.
  • medium (8-cup or slightly larger) gratin or baking dish with butter.
  • Toss the "spaghetti" with the chopped sage, garlic, 2 cups of the cheese, cream, salt and pepper.
  • Spread mixture in gratin dish (the squash layer should be about 1 inch thick). Sprinkle the remaining cheese over "spaghetti." Arrange the 3 remaining sage leaves on top of the gratin. Bake for about 45 minutes.
  • Sprinkle freshly ground black pepper over gratin and serve.
  • Note: The squash can be baked a day ahead, following the above directions. If the top of the gratin doesn't turn golden brown, place it under the broiler for about 1 minute.

I'm not a huge fan of spaghetti squash, but I really enjoyed this recipe. The gratin topping was delicious and the squash was cooked perfectly. I'll definitely be making this again.

This recipe was a disaster! The spaghetti squash was not cooked through and the gratin topping was burnt. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong. I will not be making this recipe again.
