Our usual way of cooking is to fry some garlic, add pumpkin slices then water. Stew it for 10 mins and tada.. It's done.
However... KT hates it! I could tell by the few slices he ate. Sometimes, he doesnt even touch it!
So, today, I went online and tested this recipe
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 20 minutes
Ingredients:
- 1 slice thick bacon
- 2 cups fresh, peeled and sliced (1/4-inch pieces) pumpkin
- 1 medium yellow onion, peeled and sliced
- 1/2 cup fresh chicken stock or canned chicken broth
- 1 pound pork butt or shoulder, cut into 1/8-inch strips
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
- Salt and pepper to taste
Preparation:
In a frying pan or wok, saute the bacon until it is transparent. Add the pumpkin slices and onions. Stir around in the rendered bacon fat. Add the broth. Cover and cook over medium heat until the pumpkin is tender, about 15 minutes. Remove the vegetables from the pan.
Reheat the pan and saute the pork until done, about 5 minutes. Add the vegetables to the pan and toss with the cumin, salt, and pepper. Cover for just a moment so that the flavors may develop.
Yield: 4 servings
Verdict: If you love bacon You should at least try once!
KT had two bowls of rice with this dish! Everyone of us loves it.
