Pumpkin purée always ready for some delicious creations
This is great when pumpkins are in season as they are so cheap and so versatile. I always have a freezer full of cooked, pureed pumpkin so I can make this delicious pasta anytime of the year, The pumpkin puree is also great to use in lots more savoury and sweet recipes. I think you’re going to love this pasta dish x
Ingredients
Enough pasta for 4 people (GF is needed)
The sauce:
1 onion
1 clove garlic - crushed
1 tin tomatoes
1 pre-roasted pumpkin
1/4 cup water
1 tin coconut milk
1 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp ground chilli powder
1tsp ground turmeric
Pinch chill flakes (use as much as you like the heat it creates)
Salt and pepper
Optional - toasted seeds and chilli flakes to top
Method
Pop the pasta on to boil whilst you make the sauce (enough for 4 people or use less pasta if you’re cooking for less people and save the extra sauce for another day)
Fry the onion and garlic on a low heat until the onions are translucent
Add tomatoes, pumpkin puree, water and coconut milk and stir
Place the sauce in the blender and blend until smooth
Pour the sauce back into the frying pan and add the spices, salt and pepper
Simmer for a few minutes until the pasta is ready
Drain the pasta and pour over the sauce
Add an optional sprinkle of toasted seeds and some more chilli flakes
