Butternut Squash And Yukon Gold Gratin With Gruyere Cheese Food

SQUASH, MUSTARD & GRUYèRE GRATIN

Steps:

• Heat the butter and oil in a large frying pan. Add the onions and cook slowly over a low-medium heat, stirring every now and then, for 10-15 mins until golden and soft.
• Meanwhile, put the garlic and half the sage in a saucepan, add the cream and milk, and heat gently, not allowing the mixture to boil, for 5 mins. Remove from the heat and set aside to cool for 10 mins, then fish out the sage and garlic. Stir in the mustard and season well.
• If cooking straight away, heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Layer the pumpkin slices, onions, most of the cheese and the infused cream into a large baking dish, finishing with a layer of cream. Once you've used the ingredients up, scatter with the remaining cheese and put the remaining sage leaves on top. Cover the dish with foil and bake for 45 mins.
• Uncover the dish and increase the heat to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Cook for a further 20-30 mins until golden brown and tender all the way through. Leave to cool for 10 mins before serving.

MERRITT'S BUTTERNUT SQUASH GRATIN

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
• Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Stir in the onions and garlic; cook until the onions soften and turn golden brown, about 10 minutes. Add the butternut squash and brown sugar. Continue cooking and stirring until the butternut squash begins to brown on the edges, but is still somewhat firm in the center, about 10 minutes more. Scrape the squash into the prepared baking dish, and pour in the chicken broth. Wrap tightly with aluminum foil.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the liquid has been absorbed and the squash is tender, 45 to 50 minutes. Toss together the Gruyere cheese, Cheddar cheese, bread crumbs, thyme, and rosemary in a bowl until evenly combined. Remove the foil from the baking dish, and sprinkle the squash evenly with the cheese mixture. Sprinkle the Parmesan cheese on top. Return to the oven, and bake uncovered for 15 minutes more until the topping is lightly crunchy and brown.

QUINOA & BUTTERNUT SQUASH GRATIN

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400.
• Spray a 2-quart dish with nonstick cooking spray.
• Peel and cube the butternut squash, then put in a microwave safe bowl.
• Microwave on high for 3-5 minutes until squash is soft and tender.
• Wash the quinoa in a fine sieve thoroughly (about 5 minutes) until water runs clear. This is very important, as quinoa has a bitter protective coating that can linger even after processing.
• Transfer squash and quinoa to a large pot. Add water and salt to pot and bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low and allow to simmer for 15 minutes or until liquid is absorbed and the quinoa blooms into little spirals.
• Remove from heat and let rest.
• Meanwhile, heat 1 tablespoons olive oil over medium heat in a small frying pan.
• Add shallots and cook 3 minutes.
• Add garlic and cook a minute or two longer, being careful not to let garlic burn.
• Pour over quinoa and squash mixture, mixing thoroughly.
• Add eggs, 3/4 cup of the cheese, and salt and pepper to taste.
• Transfer to prepared baking dish.
• Sprinkle remaining cheese and bread crumbs over gratin.
• Drizzle remaining 1 tablespoons of olive oil on top and bake for 35-45 minutes or until top is golden brown.

CREAMY BUTTERNUT SQUASH AND SPINACH GRATIN

Steps:

• If using fresh spinach, bring 1 inch water to a boil in a 6- to 8-quart pot over high heat. Add spinach, a few handfuls at a time, and cook, turning with tongs, until wilted, about 3 to 5 minutes. Drain in a colander and rinse under cold water. You may skip this step if you like, I don't think it's really necessary.
• Thoroughly squeeze cooked fresh or thawed frozen spinach in small handfuls to remove excess moisture(try to get it absolutely dry), then coarsely chop and transfer to a bowl.
• Melt 3 tablespoons butter in an 8-inch heavy skillet over medium low heat, then cook onion and garlic, stirring, until softened, 3 to 5 minutes(you can cook it till caramalized if you like). Add onion mixture to spinach along with salt, pepper, nutmeg, and cream and stir to combine.
• Put oven rack in upper third of oven and preheat oven to 400°F Butter a 3-quart shallow baking dish (13 by 9 inches; not glass-I think you could use glass, just be careful when broiling-that's the reason it's not recommended).
• Cut squash to separate bulb section from solid neck section, then cut pieces lengthwise into 1/8-inch-thick slices with slicer or food processor. To make the squash easier to cut, microwave for 3-5 minutes.
• Layer squash and spinach mixture in baking dish, using about one fifth of squash and one fourth of spinach for each layer, beginning and ending with squash. Sprinkle each layer of squash evenly with cheeses and dot with remaining 2 tablespoons butter, then cover directly with a sheet of parchment or wax paper(or use glass lid). Bake until squash is tender and filling is bubbling, 35 to 45 minutes. If you like, you can use individual baking dishes, just note shorter cooking time. I haven't tried baking it individually so cook times are estimated.
• Remove paper and bake gratin until browned in spots, 10 to 15 minutes, or broil 3 inches from heat, 2 to 3 minutes. Enjoy!
• Note:.
• If making individual gratins, bake 20-30 minutes.
• Also, for a shortcut, use 3 packages of creamed spinach(cooked) and skip the cream.
• Some reviewers added a little jalapeno(or chipotle peppers and sliced almonds on top.

GRATIN OF BUTTERNUT SQUASH

Steps:

• Cut off and discard the stem of the squash, then cut the squash into two pieces by cutting through it horizontally at the bottom of the neck. This will make it easier to peel.
• Peel the cylindrical neck lengthwise, removing enough skin so that the orange flesh underneath is revealed. (Under the outer skin there is a layer of green, which should be removed.) Peel the round part of the squash by cutting around it in a spiral fashion with a sharp knife; it is easier to peel a round object in this manner.
• Cut the rounded part in half lengthwise, and, using a spoon, scoop out the seeds. Then cut the squash into 1/8-to-1/4-inch slices, either with a knife or in a food processor fitted with the slicing blade.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Place the squash slices in a large saucepan, cover them with water, and bring to a boil. Boil over high heat for 1 1/2 to 2 minutes, then drain in a colander. The pieces will break a little in cooking. Arrange pieces in a gratin dish, and sprinkle with the salt and pepper. Pour on the cream, and stir gently with a fork to distribute the additions properly. Cover with the cheese, and bake for about 30 minutes.
• At serving time, brown the top of the gratin by heating it under a hot broiler for 4 to 5 minutes. Serve immediately.

BUTTERNUT SQUASH AU GRATIN RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
• Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium-low heat. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the flour and stir for 1 minute more, or until the flour turns light golden brown in color. Slowly pour the milk, stirring constantly, and cook, still stirring, until the mixture thickens slightly, 2-3 minutes.
• Add the Campbell's® Cream of Chicken Soup and stir to combine. Add the onion powder; salt; pepper; thyme; and the cheddar, Gruyère, and Parmesan cheeses. Stir for about 2 minutes, or until the cheese has melted completely. Remove the pot from the heat.
• Arrange ⅓ of the butternut squash slices on the bottom of an 8-inch square baking dish. Spread ⅓ of the sauce on top of the squash. Repeat with the remaining squash and sauce to make 2 more layers.
• Bake the gratin for 35 minutes, until the butternut squash is tender.
• Remove the gratin from the oven and turn the broiler on high.
• Sprinkle the cheddar and Gruyère cheeses over the gratin in an even layer. Top with the bread crumbs and thyme.
• Return the gratin to the oven and broil until the cheese is melted and the bread crumbs are toasted, 1-3 minutes. Keep a close eye on the dish to prevent burning.
• Allow the gratin to cool for about 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
• Enjoy!
