There are different varieties of pumpkins. If you are familiar with Ugandan pumpkins or looking for something new to try, here is a quick recipe:

What you need:

• 1 medium-sized pumpkin

Method:

• Cut the pumpkin into pieces according to your preference, removing the soft in the middle that contains the seeds. (You can keep the seeds for a snack).
• Wrap the pumpkin in banana leaves and place in a saucepan with banana fibres underneath to avoid direct contact with water.
• Fill the bottom of the saucepan with water, properly cover it and steam covered for about 45 minutes.
• Use a double saucepan if you do not have banana leaves.
