Fremgangsmåde

Trin for trin

1
Preheat your oven to 190°C (375°F) and lightly grease a 2-quart (approximately 2-liter) baking dish.
Ca. 5 min.
2
Place the sliced yellow squash in a steamer basket over boiling water, cover, and steam for 10-15 minutes until very tender.
Ca. 15 min.
Kokkens note: If you don't have a steamer, you can boil the squash in a small amount of water until tender, then drain very well.
3
While the squash steams, melt the sautéing butter in a small skillet over medium heat.
Ca. 1 min.
4
Add the finely chopped onion and cook for 5-7 minutes until soft and translucent, then set aside.
Ca. 7 min.
5
Once tender, drain the steamed squash thoroughly and transfer it to a large bowl.
Ca. 2 min.
Kokkens note: Press the squash gently to remove as much excess water as possible for a better casserole texture.
6
Mash the squash with a potato masher or fork until it's broken down but still has some texture.
Ca. 2 min.
7
Add the sautéed onion, beaten eggs, the filling butter, the filling breadcrumbs, sugar, salt, and black pepper to the mashed squash.
Ca. 2 min.
8
Stir everything together until well combined, then pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread evenly.
Ca. 1 min.
9
In a small bowl, melt the topping butter in the microwave or on the stovetop.
Ca. 1 min.
10
Add the topping breadcrumbs to the melted butter and toss until the crumbs are evenly coated.
Ca. 1 min.
11
Sprinkle the buttered breadcrumbs evenly over the squash mixture in the baking dish.
Ca. 1 min.
12
Bake for 45-50 minutes, until the topping is golden brown and the casserole is set in the center.
Ca. 45 min.
13
Remove from the oven and let it rest for at least 5 minutes before serving.
Ca. 5 min.
Kokkens note: Resting helps the casserole firm up, making it easier to slice and serve.
