Sweet And Sour Pumpkin - {Zucca Gialla In Agrodolce}

Type: Vegetables
Serves: 4 people

Recipe Ingredients

1 lb 454g / 16ozSugar pumpkin or acorn squash
4 tablespoons 60mlExtra-virgin olive oil
  Salt - to taste
  Freshly-ground black pepper - to taste
2   Garlic cloves - finely chopped
3 tablespoons 45mlHoney
3 tablespoons 45mlRed wine vinegar
1   Fresh basil - chopped
2 tablespoons 30mlChopped fresh mint

Recipe Instructions

Leave the rinds on and remove seeds from the pumpkin. Cut the flesh lengthwise into wedges, each about the length of your hand from fingertip to wrist.

In a medium saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the pumpkin wedges and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Cook until soft and deep golden brown, 7 to 8 minutes. Do not toss the wedges.

Drizzle first the honey and then the red wine vinegar over the pumpkin pieces and cook until they reduce to a glaze, turning the pumpkin pieces, if necessary. Add basil and mint at the last second.

Transfers pumpkin wedges to a platter and drizzle pan juices on top. Serve hot.

This recipe yields 4 servings.
