Ingredients
- 1 small pumpkin, peeled, deseeded and chopped into 2cm pieces
Method
- Put the pumpkin into a medium saucepan and just cover with boiling water
- Bring to a simmer and cook for 12-15 mins, until falling apart when pressed
- Drain, reserving some of the cooking water
- Using a handheld stick blender, purée the pumpkin until smooth, adding 1 tsp of the reserved cooking water if needed. Alternatively, leave to cool, then blend in a jug blender or food processor
- If your purée is very watery, return it to the pan and cook on a low heat for 4-6 mins, stirring constantly, to reduce it. The purée freezes well, or can be stored in the fridge for up to 3 days
