Pumpkin stuffed with curried pork
- Prep time:
- Cook time:
- Serves:
Mini pumpkins are hollowed out and stuffed with spiced pork in Liz McClarnon’s autumnal dish
Ingredients
- 225g lean minced pork
- 2 tbsp curry powder
- 1 x 400g tinned chopped tomatoes
- 1 tbsp mango chutney
- 4 small squash or pumpkin
- crusty bread, to serve
Method
1. Preheat the oven to 180C/gas 4.2. In a large non-stick wok or saucepan, fry the mince (without any oil) until browned. Add the curry powder and cook for a further 1-2 minutes.
3. Stir in the tomatoes and mango chutney, bring the mixture to the boil and then immediately turn down to a simmer.
4. Cut off the top of the pumpkins to create a lid and scoop out any seeds and stringy bits using a large spoon. Set aside the lids.
5. Place each pumpkin on a piece of foil large enough to wrap around it and arrange on a roasting tray. Spoon the spiced mince into the pumpkins, replace the lids, pour a splash of boiling water into the bottom of the tray and loosely wrap the pumpkins in the foil.
6. Bake for about 1 hour, or until the pumpkin flesh is soft.
7. Serve the pumpkins hot with crusty bread.
