The cheap simple version. One pumpkin (500g), one onion and 450 mls of vegetable stock. (though, after weighing the stupid pumpkin, I needed to double up on stock and onions. ended up with FAR too much)

Step 1. take the top off the pumpkin

You just know I'm gunna do some damage with that knife

Step 2. Deseed and gut the bastard. Don't bin the seeds, you can shove them in the oven on a low heat. They are well nice. You can use them to throw in the soup when its done as a topping, but I dont think they taste nice like that. Nice scoffing them as they are :mokken:

Step 3. Union Break

Step 4, slice dice and peel the bastard

Knew I'd do some damage with that knife :hmph:

Step 5. Melt a little butter in a pan and fry the onions til soft but not brown. Add the pumpkin and cook until soft and golden (I made far too much, but once it cooked a bit, I managed to squeeze it all in one pan, covered and left til twas nice and soft)

Season wif salt and pepper

Observe: washing as I go along. I'd make a damn good fucking wife :rage:

Step 6. Blend (seive if desired) and serve

Step 7. Fucking eat and enjoy. Didn't even touch the sides it was well nice

And all for £2.87

I'm half expecting that to fall off the side considering you have it right on the edge xD
 
It's already been scoffed, some left over for romorrow, just tucking into the seeds :ryan:

I wish it wasnt so annoying to prepare though, have you ever tried peeling and slicing a pumpkin :rage:
 
I can't imagine peeling a pumpkin. :hmph:

I may do this for pumpkin pie since not a lot of people know anything about it. :hmmm:

But it probably won't be as entertaining. :wacky: Great Job, Kelly. Hope the soup was worth the injury. :lew:
 
you make a proper good housewife :awesome:
it doesnt seem to hard to make, but nice intructions and pictures as well : P
Lovely idea to post something like this xD

Now dry those pans immediately !
 
Aw no, I don't dry I hate drying, I just let them dry on their own and put them away. Though, i was running out of draining board before so I had to relent, dry the pots and put them away :rage:
 
If you haven't tried it, how the chuff do you know :mokken:

At least Ive TRIED bacon/tuna/steak etc and know I don't like it

It's immense you balloon :rage:

shaddap and read my post properly :hmph:

i said it sounds horrible :hmph: not that it tastes it :hmph:

if you made it it probadly is terrible though :hmph:
 
Cheeky arse, it's lovely :mokken:

I've never had squash but i think they are similar, pumpkin is much nice cooked than raw though, it goes sweet when it's cooked. I might make a pie

Im sure I have a recipe somewhere

thought, the idea of slicing another one up makes me fear for my fingers :gonk:

PUMPKIN PIE HAS CINNAMON IN IT

WHY? WHY?! FUCKING. WHY?!?!
 
i dont trust your tastebuds kelly.

because you dont like bacon or beef and you were about to eat a bloody conker.

fool :rage:
 
I like lots of things, I just don't happen to like ...those things ]:

In my defense though, I'm willing to try most things :gonk:

And I love onion rings. We agree on those :mokken:
 
It's probably more vile than bacon. I can't fucking stand it. I remember buying cinnamon grahams once, before I knew I didnt like the stuff. What a waste of cereal. Actually. I think its top of the list of things I don't like

I DO use it, I have it in the cupboard, but only if I have to, I'd never bake anything where the primary flavour was cinnamon, it's just summat you occasionally have to add when you're baking

Nasty nasty stuff
