Pumpkin Recipes

Clet brought back one whole pumpkin from his friend's farm in Sandakan last week.

He helped me to cut it up into smaller wedges to make it easier for me to store in the fridge.
I tried to make a pumpkin cake with it, the cake is well accepted by Clet, and our 2 little girls considering the first time I attempted this recipe. They do not like pumpkin to be cooked as a dish for meals but they love pumpkin cake. Glad that they like it because pumpkin is very nutritious.
I also used some pumpkin for soup, the chicken with carrot & pumpkin soup.

Pumpkin is also nice to be eaten raw, crunchy and little bit sweet in taste. Have you ever tried pumpkin juice? Yes, I made pumpkin juice with it as well, it smells and taste nice. It has since become one of our favourite juice after the first trial last week.
