Pasta with pumpkin
Description
The dish is prepared without unnecessary complications. Pumpkin pasta is made in three steps: roasting the pumpkin, cooking the pasta, and preparing the sauce. By the way, you can add a bit of pumpkin purée to the sauce. To do this, blend a handful of roasted pumpkin with a blender. You can omit the garlic if you prefer the sweeter taste of pumpkin. Also, a pinch of chili works great in the sauce, of course, if you enjoy sweet and spicy combinations. Good luck! The finished dish is ready to be served.
