Kitchen Tools:

To start, heat a pan over medium heat and add the garlic, ginger, and red chili. Sauté until fragrant, then pour in the coconut milk and pumpkin puree. Stir in the curry powder and let the mixture simmer for about 10 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.

While the sauce is simmering, cook your pasta according to the package instructions in a separate pot. Once the pasta is al dente, drain it and set it aside.

Once the sauce has thickened slightly, add the cooked pasta to the pan and toss to coat evenly. Squeeze in the lime juice and sprinkle with fresh cilantro before serving.

This curried pumpkin pasta is a delightful fusion of creamy, spicy, and tangy flavors that will warm you from the inside out. The total weight of the cooked dish is approximately 1200g, with 4 servings at 300g each. One serving contains around 400 calories.

A clever tip to enhance the flavor of this dish is to toast some pumpkin seeds in a dry pan until they are fragrant and golden brown. Sprinkle them over the pasta for an added crunch and nuttiness that will take this dish to the next level.
