Cooking the dish according to the recipe:


  1. Preheat oven to 200°C (400°F). Melt 2 tablespoons (30g) butter in a large ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and thyme and cook, stirring, until the onion is soft, about 5 minutes.
  2. Combine the butternut squash and kabocha squash in a large microwave-safe bowl with 1 cup water. Cover with plastic wrap and microwave on high until the squash is tender, about 5 minutes. Drain and add the squash to the skillet along with the garlic, butternut squash, 1 teaspoon salt, and a few grinds of pepper. Cook, stirring, for about 3 minutes.

    Add the broth and simmer until almost completely absorbed, about 5 more minutes. Stir in the heavy cream and simmer until the mixture thickens slightly, 2 minutes more.

  3. Melt 1 tablespoon (15 g) butter in the microwave and toss with bread crumbs, Parmesan, and parsley; season with salt and pepper. Spoon over the pumpkin, then sprinkle with Gruyere. Transfer the pan to the oven and bake until golden brown, about 30 minutes. Let the gratin sit for 5 minutes before serving.
