Cut up one of my homegrown pumpkin today and made Pumpkin & Lentil Stew.

Pumpkin & Lentil Stew
Serve 6

1 large onion diced
1 clove of crushed garlic
3 tsp. curry powder mild or to your taste
(or 1 teaspoon of each cumin, coriander & turmeric)
1 tsp. chopped ginger
3 cups of vegetable stock (or 2 tsp. vegetable stock powder & 3 cups boiling water)
3 cups raw pumpkin diced
1 large raw potato diced
1 cup frozen green beans pieces
1 cup red lentil
1 can diced tomatoes

Saute onion and garlic for 2 minutes.
Combine spices with onion mixture and saute for 1 minute.
Add vegetable stock and all other ingredients, but the green bean pieces bring to the boil.
Cover and simmer are cooked stir occasionally.
Add frozen green beans in the last 10 minutes.
It makes enough for most of the week with two soup ladles per serve
I serve it with 1/2 Focaccia roll each time.
