Bumbu Curry Roasted Pumpkin
An amazing roast pumpkin side dish that is the perfect main meal if you needed to serve your local vegetarian! Great as a quick lunch, as you do!
Sometimes magic just happens. We had been prepping for our Pop Up shop and there was no lunch in the offing! I had pumpkin, I had Bumbu Curry Paste (thanks Mozaic) and so they were a natural pair. We knew we were onto a winner as it cooked. AMAZING. So if you have some curry paste just sitting around, begging to be used this is the perfect way to use it. I do suggest you go with the Bumbu of course. Maybe it's time to get a batch made!
You could use any of these other curry pastes for this recipe as well;
