Ingredients

• 500 grams Pumpkin
• 2 tablespoons Oil (preferably canola or vegetable)
• 1 teaspoon Cumin seeds
• 0.5 teaspoon Turmeric powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Red chili powder
• 1 teaspoon Coriander powder
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper powder
• 1 teaspoon Ginger (grated)
• 2 pieces Green chilies (slit)
• 2 medium Tomatoes (finely chopped)
• 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro (coriander leaves, chopped)
• 1 pinch Asafoetida (hing)

Directions

Step 1

Cut the pumpkin into small cubes, removing the skin and seeds in the process.

Step 2

Heat oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add the cumin seeds and allow them to crackle.

Step 3

Add the grated ginger and slit green chilies. Sauté for 1-2 minutes until the ginger releases its aroma.

Step 4

Add a pinch of asafoetida followed by chopped tomatoes. Cook the mixture, stirring frequently, until the tomatoes become soft and pulpy.

Step 5

Add turmeric powder, red chili powder, coriander powder, and black pepper powder. Stir well to combine the spices with the tomatoes.

Step 6

Add the pumpkin cubes to the spice-tomato mixture. Stir to coat the pumpkin pieces thoroughly with the masala.

Step 7

Cover the pan with a lid and let it cook on low heat for about 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally. Cook until the pumpkin is soft and fully cooked.

Step 8

Turn off the heat and garnish with freshly chopped cilantro leaves before serving.

Step 9

Serve hot with chapati or rice as a complete meal.
