Spicy Roast Pumpkin - cooking recipe
Ingredients
-
2 lbs fresh pumpkin, peeled & seeded
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
1 teaspoon ground cumin or 1 teaspoon cumin seed
Preparation
-
Pre-heat oven to 200 C or 400\u00b0F.
Quarter and then carefully peel and seed the pumpkin.
Cut into chunky 2\" cubes.
Place pumpkin into a large & sturdy roasting tray.
Add the olive oil, salt, pepper & cumin - mix well, making sure that all the pumpkin pieces are coated in olive oil.
Bake in the oven for about 30 to 45 minutes or until the pumpkin is soft & also tinged brown at the edges.
Serve with a main meal as the vegetable dish OR freeze for future savoury pumpkin recipes. I also make soup from this - as well as pasta dishes too - recipes to be posted for those!
