Cook time: 13 mins
Yield: about 3 cups
Ingredients:
- 900 gm pumpkin, deseeded
- ½ cup water, for steaming
- Put the trivet in the pot. Pour in the water.
- Cut the pumpkin into 2 to 3 portions that can be well fitted in the pot. Place the pumpkin on the trivet.
- Put the lid on with “sealing” setting. Press the “steam” button and cook for 12 to 13 minutes. When the machine beeps, do a quick pressure release. Let the pumpkin cool down a bit. Scoop out the flesh with a large spoon. Process the pumpkin flesh with an immersion blender or press it with a large spoon until it’s smooth. Done. You might like to season it with sugar or spices if desired.
- You can steam the pumpkin in a wok or a steamer instead. Be sure to cut it into smaller pieces. Otherwise the steaming takes a while. Cut into 3-inch cubes and steam about 15 to 20 minutes.
- The cooked pumpkin flesh can be stored in fridge for up to a week.
