Stewed Pumpkins

This aromatic stewed pumpkin is a wonderfully simple vegetarian side dish that celebrates the natural sweetness of autumnal squash. By gently warming mashed pumpkin with creamy butter and a touch of cider vinegar, you create a velvety texture with a sophisticated, tangy finish. The addition of ground ginger provides a subtle heat that cuts through the richness, making it a versatile accompaniment to a variety of seasonal main courses.

Ideal for a comforting Sunday roast or a nutritious midweek meal, this homemade dish is an excellent way to use up seasonal produce. It is naturally gluten-free and can be easily adapted with warming spices like nutmeg or cinnamon to suit your palate. Serve it alongside roasted root vegetables or as a vibrant alternative to traditional mashed potatoes for a boost of colour and flavour.
