Preheat the oven to 200 °C (conventional oven). Wash the spaghetti squash, halve lengthwise and remove the seeds. Brush the flesh with the oil, place the squash halves on a baking tray lined with baking paper or in a large baking dish with the cut side facing down and bake for 40 to 50 minutes.

 

Meanwhile, peel and finely chop the garlic. Pick off the thyme leaves and chop them finely. Now heat the butter in a frying pan until melts. Add the garlic, thyme and lemon juice, simmer for approx. 5 minutes and set aside. In another pan, dry fry the pine nuts and set aside as well.

 

Once cooked, remove the pumpkin halves from the oven, turn them over and use a fork to loosen up the spaghetti-like threads of pulp from the skin. Season the flesh thoroughly with salt and pepper, sprinkle the thyme and garlic butter over it and mix well. Finally sprinkle the grated Parmesan on top.

 

Bon appétit!
