Onion Squash Variation

This week we are featuring a recipe submitted by a customer. Feel free to email talktous@onlyorganic.org if you’d like to see your recipes featured here alongside the Gourmet Doctor.

I just wanted to let you know what I did with the onion squash I received last week.

Firstly, I toasted a handful (or two) of pine nuts, and fried 8 or so rashers of streaky bacon. I chopped the squash into cubes and then sautéed the cubes with a big clove of garlic and a little olive oil. You have to stir constantly to stop it sticking to the pan. Then I added a little (approx.1/2 cup) home-made chicken stock, brought it to the boil, then simmered for a few minutes. When the squash was tender and the stock had slightly thickened, I chopped up the cooked bacon and then mixed everything with cooked spaghetti. Served with a drizzle of olive oil and grated parmesan, it was delicious!

(The amounts are all approximate though, because I always cook by what looks right instead of measurements. Nothing is ever made the same twice!
