Pumpkin Stew |
Hello Readers! In the spirit of Halloween, I decided to make pumpkin stew. Now Pumpkin is not something I get excited about however,
after preparing this dish my whole stance has changed. I experienced one of
those “don’t knock it until you try it moments”. As with all my dishes, this is dish
is simple to prepare and perfect as a main course for lunch or dinner.
I used pork to compliment the sweet flavour of the
pumpkin however; any meat of your liking can be used as a substitute. The vibrant colours of this dish not only makes it pretty but its tastes exceptionally divine as well. I hope you enjoy reading and hopefully
try out the recipe.
Aprons on!!!
