How to make Pumpkin Talkari

Place a deep skillet or heavy-bottomed pan on medium heat. Add coconut oil and simmer until hot. 

Add the onions to heated oil and cook until translucent in appearance. 

Add garlic to the pan, mix with the onion, stirring with a wooden spoon, cook for 3 minutes or until tender.

Add the pumpkin to the pan, mix with other ingredients, and cover. Reduce the heat to low and cook for 10-15 minutes or until the pumpkin is tender.

Stir now and then to prevent the pumpkin from sticking to the pan and test if it is cooked by pressing to see if it can be mashed.

Once the pumpkin is cooked, add the remaining ingredients, mashing and mixing everything into a thick pulp.

Once thoroughly mixed, remove from the heat, allowing to cool for 5-10 minutes.

Serve with your favorite roti or as a side dish for your meal.
