Ingredients
1 spaghetti squash (about 4 pounds), halved lengthwise, seeds removed
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for brushing
1 tablespoon packed light-brown sugar
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese (about 2 1/2 ounces)

1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro
1/4 cup blanched hazelnuts, toasted and coarsely chopped
Directions
- Preheat oven to 400°F.
- Brush cut sides of squash with oil, and sprinkle with sugar, salt and pepper to taste. Place squash, cut sides down, on a rimmed baking sheet.
- Roast until tender, about 45 minutes. Let cool slightly on a wire rack, about 10 minutes.
- Scrape squash with a fork to remove flesh in long strands. Place in a large bowl.
