Creamy Baked Pumpkin

Prep time: 10 mins
Cook time: 30 mins
Yield: 3 to 4 serves

Ingredients:
  • 650 gm pumpkin
  • 3/4 cup (about 200 ml) light thickened cream
  • 2 to 3 sprigs thyme
  • Parmesan cheese, to taste
  • ⅛ tsp nutmeg
  • sea salt, to taste
  • pepper, to taste
  • olive oil, to taste
Method:
  1. Preheat oven to 200C / 390F. Peel and deseed pumpkin. Cut into chunks. Put into a baking dish. Season with salt and pepper. Mix with thyme and olive oil. Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.
  2. While baking the pumpkin, combine half of the parmesan cheese with light thickened cream. Mix in nutmeg.
  3. When the pumpkin turns soft after baking for 30 minutes, carefully remove the baking dish from oven. Pour in the cheese and cream mixture. Sprinkle the remaining cheese on top. Put into oven and continue baking for another 10 minutes, until the cheese melts and surface becomes lightly brown, bubbling arising. It’s done. Serve immediately.
Notes:
  • Fresh thyme is the best, but dried one can be used though. Nutmeg is a kind of spices, available at supermarkets. I also found nutmeg at Asian grocers with a better price.
