This is a dish I used to eat monthly. Now I usually can only make this during the fall when pumpkin is in season. Serve this with yogurt sauce, kebabs and goes great with my Afghan eggplant recipe.

OMG. What an incredible recipe. Love EVERYTHING in here, especially the pumpkin. Great post. You have my 5.


Looks Great Jen, have saved it to try. ;-)


Look at your tomato sauce ingredient. Is it one four ounce can tomato sauce or a fourteen ounce can tomato sauce? I'm thinking it should be fourteen because I'm sure I can't find a four ounce can of tomato sauce in the store.

Recipe does sound good and I would like to make it.


It is 4 oz can of tomato sauce. Not a typo. :)

Hunts is the brand that I use.


Dish was very good. I'm still chuckling about the tiny tomato sauce cans you can buy. The only can I can buy that small is tomato paste!

Anyway, I opened up a regular can of tomato sauce and measured out the required half cup. I have enough ingredients to make the dish twice more.

I ate this as a meal instead of a side dish so the serving size in this case was one. Kept me full all day.

I let mother do the guinea pig taste test. She knew it was pumpkin but said it taste like peaches. Now isn't that strange.

Posted a pic for you. Next time around, with your permission, I'll use tomato paste.
