If you fancy preparing a special and slightly more elaborate meal that is also climatefriendly, this is the recipe for you! A pumpkin recipe inspired by Thai cuisine which combines three different dishes harmonising with each other: The star and name bearer of this delicious meal is the pumpkin roasted in the oven with racy red curry paste and crisp pumpkin seeds. Complemented by a refreshing white cabbage salad seasoned with lemon and peperoncini. Additionally, we serve white aromatic basmati rice. Coriander and lime complement these three individual dishes giving them their Thai flavour. This dish is particularly suited for a social dinner where guests can serve themselves whilst seated at the table. This way of dining is called the sharing principle.
