Savory Baked Pumpkin with Garlic and Basil
I was telling you that this year we have a lot of pumpkins from our home garden, after we got tired of the pumpkin galette we came across this recipe by chance. To be honest, I was skeptical throughout the cooking process (and I had nothing to lose, because pumpkins spoil if I don't cook them), but the result was amazing. The husband asked for the second portion, he also admitted that he did not expect such a good taste.
We served it with cheese and sour cream, without meat and other vegetables, we had a very full and special dinner.
To taste I would say that there is something between baked carrots and potatoes, really worth a try.

Step by step
Step 1
Peel a squash and cut it into 1-1.5 cm thick slices.
Step 2
Mix the oil with the salt, basil and crushed garlic.
Step 3
Arrange the pumpkin in an oven tray.
Using a brush, grease the pumpkin slices with the mixture of oil and spices.
Step 4
Put it in the oven for 40 minutes at 200 degrees.
For me, it baked nicely on top and browned and underneath.
Step 5
Let it cool for about 15 minutes and serve with whatever you like - as a vegetable garnish, or with some cream cheese.
Good appetite!
