Orange is the colour we need at the beginning of autumn in order to forget that the winter season is getting dangerously close. Or, at least, I need as much warm as possible to survive the long dark time of snow and cold. But at least I have a serious reason to be happy at the arrival of autumn: the pumpkin season.
Even though nowadays it is possible to buy pumpkin regardless of the time of the year, I always prefer to add them on my menu in autumn. If I have a pumpkin tooth, I know what to do without too much suffering.
My first pumpkin of the year was relatively easy to prepare:
I boiled it for around 45 minutes at a temperature of 150C. I added a pinch of salt in the boiling water for taste.
In the mixer, I added: 1 tablespoon of olive oil, some garlic on taste, one teaspoon of turmeric, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, one tablespoon of za'atar. The overall mixing process may take maximum 5 minutes.
To be served fresh and hot, with some leaves of cilantro for a more complex taste and green decorations.
Bon Appetit!
