Categories     main-dish

Total Time 1 hours 45 minutes

Prep Time 15 minutes

Cook Time 1 hours 25 minutes

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 medium acorn squash (2 to 2 1/4 pounds each)
3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 small onion, chopped
1 cup red quinoa, rinsed well
1 teaspoon mild curry powder
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/4 cup dried cranberries
1 cup loosely packed fresh parsley leaves, chopped
1/4 cup roasted, salted and shelled pistachios, coarsely chopped

Steps:

  • Position an oven rack in the middle of the oven; preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Cut each squash in half lengthwise and scoop out and discard the seeds. Arrange the halves in a large baking dish, flesh-side up.
  • Whisk together the vinegar, 2 tablespoons of the oil and the maple syrup in a cup. Brush the flesh side of the squash halves with some of the maple mixture and sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Put the squash flesh-side down in the baking dish, then brush the skin side with maple mixture and sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Roast until the squash is fork-tender, 50 to 60 minutes. Poke the inside of the squash halves with a fork and brush generously with more of the maple mixture.
  • Meanwhile, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon oil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until soft and golden brown, about 6 minutes. Add the quinoa, curry powder, cinnamon, and 1 teaspoon salt and stir until the spices are toasted, about 1 minute. Add 2 cups water and bring to a simmer. Lower the heat, cover the pan and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the quinoa is tender and most of the liquid is absorbed, 20 to 24 minutes. Remove from the heat and let sit, covered, for 5 minutes. Uncover and stir in the cranberries, remaining maple mixture, half of the parsley and half of the pistachios.
  • Stuff the squash halves with the quinoa and sprinkle with the remaining parsley and pistachios. Serve warm or at room temperature.

BAKED STUFFED WINTER SQUASH RECIPE | ALLRECIPES



Baked Stuffed Winter Squash Recipe | Allrecipes image

Winter squash (acorn, kabocha, butternut) is baked, scooped out, and mixed with other ingredients, then stuffed back into the rind and baked. This dish has it all -- veggies, meat, and a natural sweetness and creamy consistency without any added sugar. I use pork sausage but you can substitute something lower in fat.

Cook Time 1 hours 5 minutes

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 acorn squash, halved and seeded
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 medium onion, chopped
1 stalk celery, chopped

BAKED STUFFED ACORN SQUASH RECIPE - NYT COOKING
This makes a substantial vegetarian – or vegan if you leave out the cheese – Thanksgiving main dish. It is another riff on the native American tradition of the Three Sisters – corn, beans, and squash. I used acorn squash here, and it serves as a vessel for the sweet and pungent bean, corn and tomato filling. Acorn squash comes in various sizes; the larger ones, which are sometimes all I can find, take almost an hour to soften and cook through; the finished squash can be cut in half or even into thirds if too big for one serving. With everything that comes on the Thanksgiving sideboard, that will probably be the case. I always bake the squash for about 20 minutes before cutting it in half; they soften up a little bit, which makes it much easier to cut.

  • Oil 1 or 2 baking dishes or a sheet pan that will accommodate all the squash. Season cavities and cut sides of the squash with salt and pepper and brush with olive oil or melted butter. Fill with bean mixture. Mix together bread crumbs, Gruyère and remaining olive oil and sprinkle over the filling. Brush exposed edges of squash with oil. Place in the baking dish or on baking sheet and cover tightly with foil. Bake large squash for 45 minutes, check smaller squash after 30 minutes. The flesh should be easy to penetrate with the tip of a knife. Uncover and return to oven for 5 to 10 minutes, or until breadcrumbs and cheese are lightly browned. Serve hot or warm.

  • Preheat the oven to 190°C/375°F/gas 5. Carefully slice the bottom off each squash to help them sit nice and flat. Cut 2cm from the top to make a lid, then scoop out the seeds, arrange in a roasting tray and season the insides with sea salt and black pepper. Place a frying pan on a medium heat with 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Peel and finely chop the red onion, add to the pan and fry for a few minutes, or until softened. Roughly chop the fruit and nuts, putting a handful aside for garnish, then add the rest to the pan, along with the grains. Toast for a couple of minutes, or until popping, then add 250ml of water and cook for 2 minutes more to soften. Tear in half the mint leaves, give everything a good stir, then have a taste and season to perfection. Divide the mixture between the squash, then pop the lids on and bake for 50 minutes or until the squash is tender. Pick the remaining mint, keeping a few smaller leaves back to garnish, and roughly chop the rest. Place into a bowl with a splash of boiling water, a good swig of red wine vinegar and a pinch of salt. Sprinkle the reserved fruit, nuts, and mint leaves over the squash, then spoon over the mint sauce, and serve.
