Instructions
Step 1
If you want, you can roast the pumpkin first. Put it on a tray with some oil and salt. Bake at 390°F for 30 minutes. Heat oil in a big pot. Add mustard seeds and wait for them to pop. Throw in the onion and cook until soft. Add garlic, ginger, chili, and cilantro stalks. Cook for 2 minutes, stirring often. Put in all the spices and 1 tsp salt. Cook on low heat for 1-2 minutes until it smells good. Add tomatoes and a splash of water. Cook for 2 minutes. Pour in coconut milk and add pumpkin. Let it boil gently, then simmer with the lid on until the pumpkin is soft. Taste and add more salt if needed. Mix in some maple syrup. Serve with cilantro leaves and cashews on top. Eat with rice or naan bread. Special Notes: For extra flavor, try roasting the pumpkin with a sprinkle of curry powder before adding it to the pot. If you like it creamy, blend half the curry before adding the pumpkin. This makes a thicker sauce that clings to the pumpkin pieces.
