  3. Bake the squash in the oven until slightly softened, about 10-12 minutes. This will make it easier to carve out the top of the squash.

  4. Carefully cut around the stem of the squash to make a 4-4½ inch lid. Remove the lid and scrape out the seeds and pulp; discard or save seeds for later use. Place the lid back on the squash and roast until just tender, around 30 minutes.

  5. In the meantime, prepare the filling. Heat a lightly oiled pan over medium-high heat. Cook the marinated pork until the meat is almost fully cooked, about 6-8 minutes. Add the scallions and jalapeño and cook for 1 more minute.

  6. Take the squash out of the oven and remove the lid. Fill the cavity with the pork bulgogi and top with a generous amount of shredded mozzarella. Place back in the oven and bake until the cheese has melted and is slightly golden brown, about 10-12 minutes.

  7. Transfer squash to a large serving platter. Avoiding the filling, cut the squash into 8 wedges but not all the way through the base. Carefully fan out the wedges into a flower shape. Garnish with parsley and serve with rice.
