5 PUMPKIN RECIPES TO TRY

Pumpkin is an extremely rich food. It's cooked in all its forms, but did you know it's a real treasure on the plate? Today, we're sharing our 5 favorite pumpkin recipes.

Pumpkin provides a ton of nutrients (alpha-carotene, beta-carotene) that boost the production of vitamin A, an antioxidant vitamin, and helps protect the immune system and cell degradation! Pumpkin is also rich in potassium. The latter helps improve blood pressure and prevents the risk of cardiovascular disease. Rich in iron, pumpkin is highly recommended for patients with kidney disease. Finally, it stimulates the digestive system thanks to its fiber-rich flesh!

• 300g pumpkin and flour
• Olive oil
• Salt, pepper
• Spices of your choice (cumin, curry, etc.)

1. Steam the pumpkin for 10 to 15 minutes until it is tender. Let it cool (about 2 hours) before starting to cook.
2. Mash the pumpkin into a puree.
3. Add the flour with the spices and mix well.
4. Shape the gnocchi using two teaspoons into small balls that you will flatten slightly with a fork to give the ridged side (a fun and manual task to leave to the children!). If the gnocchi are not easy to handle, add more flour.
5. Boil a pot of water.
6. Dip the gnocchi into boiling water and let them cook until they rise to the surface (about 10 minutes of cooking time).
7. You can serve them plain or fry them in a pan for a few minutes with a drizzle of olive oil. This will give them a crispy texture and a beautiful golden color!
8. It's ready, enjoy!
