Pumpkin and Peas
1/2 Pumpkin
A handful of peas
1 tbs pre-made caramelized onion
Halve a pumpkin, cut the ends and scoop out the seeds and stringy parts. Steam until tender but not mushy. Cool slightly before slicing it or cutting it into nice cubes if you have guests to impress
Heat 2 tbs of olive oil in the pan over medium-high heat. Add in the pumpkin. let them caramelize and brown on all sides.
Add 1/2tsp salt, caramelized onion and peas. toss over heat to meld the flavor.
Serve. Sprinkle with store-bought pumpkin seeds for garnish, or chopped parsley, or toasted sesame seeds. whichever you choose, it will be good
