Contributed by Dangrus

Ingredients:

3 fresh acorn squash
salt to taste
2 fresh tart apples -- (2 to 3)
butter
6 Tbsp. brown sugar
nutmeg to taste
Monterey Jack cheese, shredded finely

Preparation:

Cut squash in half; remove seeds. Place cut side down in shallow greased baking dish; add 1/2 cup boiling water. Cover. Bake in preheated 350 degrees oven 10 minutes. Remove from oven; remove cover. Turn squash cut side up; sprinkle with salt. Peel and core apples; cut into wedges. Fill squash cavities with apples; dot generously with butter. Sprinkle each squash half with 1 tablespoon brown sugar, then with a little nutmeg. Pour 1/2 cup boiling water into baking dish. Bake 30 minutes or until squash and apples are tender. Sprinkle with Monterey Jack cheese just before serving. 

Yield: 6 servings.

***Note: Contrary to popular opinion, the kort is not a fruit, but a vegetable as described in Tribesman of Gor, pg37. "korts, a large, brownish-skinned, thick-skinned, sphere-shaped vegetable, usually some six inches in width, the interior of which is yellowish, fibrous and heavily seeded."

The acorn squash is what I found comes closest to this description. If you know of another, please send it to me at gorean_falls@hotmail.com.
