I received some cute, heart-shaped cast-iron casserole dishes, so I prepared kabocha squash au gratin. I tried combining a lot of the steps together since washing dishes is a pain!

The cheese is a little hard to melt, so before putting it into the oven, you can microwave for about a minute.

Ingredients

2 servings
  1. 1/2Kabocha squash
  2. 1Onion
  3. 20 gramsButter
  4. 4 tbspFlour
  5. 600 mlMilk
  6. 1 dashSalt and pepper
  7. 2Soup stock cube
  8. 1Natural cheese

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Cut the kabocha into bite-sized chunks, then microwave for 4-5 minutes.

  2. 2

    Thinly slice the onion, then gently sauté in the frying pan with butter.

  3. 3

    Once the onions have fully cooked, mix in a little flour at a time.

  4. 4

    Add the milk in portions and mix well after each incorporation until it is your desired consistency.

  5. 5

    Add the salt, pepper, and soup stock cubes.

  6. 6

    Add the kabocha and simmer a bit until creamy. If you break up the kabocha with a wooden spatula, you'll be able to speed up the process a bit.

  7. 7

    Pour into a heatproof container and top with cheese and panko (I didn't have panko when I made the one shown in the photo, so I crumbled up some bread instead).

  8. 8

    The inside is already cooked, so just watch it in the oven and take it out when the surface has browned. I baked it at 200℃ for 10 minutes.

  9. 9

    I bought a new baking dish and tried out this kabocha squash gratin! The surface is crispy and delicious!

  10. 10

    Here's the Halloween version! I added macaroni to it.
