Pumpkin Gratin

 

1/8 cup extra virgin olive oil

Freshly ground black pepper

sea salt

3 tbsp. freshly grated Parmesan cheese

1lb peeled pumpkin, cut into 1 1/4" chunks


Preheat oven to 350 F. Put olive oil, pepper and a few flakes of sea salt in a large bowl, then stir in Parmesan. Toss the pumpkin with this mixture until well coated. Choose a shallow gratin dish into which the pumpkin will fit snugly, and brush the dish with the olive oil. Pile in the pumpkin and bake for 45 minutes to 1 hour. If the cheese browns before the pumpkin is tender, cover the dish with foil for the last 15 minutes of cooking. Yields 6 to 8 servings.
