Butternut squash filling

4 Servings

Quantity Ingredient
5 ounces Butternut squash; peeled and seeded
2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
\N \N Nutmeg
\N \N Salt
tablespoon Parmigiano-reggiano cheese; freshly grated

1. Grate the butternut squash. Saute it in the butter over very low heat, preferably in a nonstick pan, being careful that it never burns but gives up its own water as a medium to cook in, about 15-20 minutes. It should break down into a smooth mass. Mixture must be cooked until it is thick. 2.

Remove from the heat and stir in nutmeg, salt and cheese.

The filling can be made 2 days in advance, and refrigerated. Warm before using to stuff pasta.
