Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Microwave Spaghetti Squash Dish.
Step 1
Start by trimming the stem end off the spaghetti squash with a sharp knife.
Step 2
Next, create a dotted line of small slits along the squash where you intend to slice it.
Step 3
Carefully cut between these slits to halve the squash.
Step 4
Once halved, scoop out the seeds and any stringy pulp from the center.
Step 5
Place the squash halves, cut-side down, in a 9x13-inch microwave-safe dish.
Step 6
Add enough water to the dish to create a depth of at least half an inch.
Step 7
Microwave on High for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the skin feels soft and can be easily pierced with a fork.
Step 8
If your dish is too large to rotate, pause the microwave halfway through cooking to turn the dish for even heating.
Step 9
Enjoy the delightful transformation of this humble squash into a delicious, noodle-like dish!.
