Pumpkin sweet and sour prepared

To cook the pumpkin sweet and sour recipe, first cut the pumpkin into bite-sized pieces. I leave the peel on, because it is edible in the Hokkaido pumpkin and provides additional nutrients.

Peel and finely chop the onion and garlic. I also grate the ginger to get the maximum flavor.

In a pan, heat the oil and then sauté the onions, garlic and ginger until golden brown and nicely fragrant.

Add the pumpkin and sauté briefly with the spices.

Add the sugar, vinegar, soy sauce and water to the pan and stir well. I let the sugar dissolve completely before putting the lid on the pan. Then simmer on medium heat for about 20 minutes.

Season to taste with salt and pepper. When the pumpkin is soft, the dish is ready.

I like to serve the pumpkin sweet and sour with some basmati rice. It's the perfect dish for a cozy evening at home and a real treat for pumpkin lovers!
