Pumpkin in sour cream sauce with garlic

Pumpkin lovers use this vegetable, remarkable in terms of taste and beneficial properties, mainly to create a variety of desserts - jams, confitures, fillings for pies and snack baked slices with honey or sugar. But this rather limited range of applications is being crowded out by new recipes, for example, those for preparing pumpkin in sour cream sauce. This dish is no longer a dessert, but a full-fledged side dish for any meat, and with some effort from the culinary team, even the main dish.

Fried

Option 1

The simplest recipe is pumpkin fried in a frying pan with garlic. Prepared at the rate of 4 garlic cloves per 300 g of pulp. Of course, the proportions can be changed depending on preference and garlic tolerance. This time we will fry in butter.

The pumpkin should have a crust like a fried potato.

We clean the pumpkin, cut it into rectangles 2*4 cm. Melt 30 g of butter in a saucepan, lay out the sticks in one layer, squeeze the garlic on them and fry on both sides until golden brown. Pumpkin fried in this way is best served hot.

Note: Although the product itself is low-calorie, butter increases the energy value of the dish.

Option 2

Cut the pumpkin into thin slices, roll each piece in cornstarch and fry in vegetable oil until golden brown. Then put the pumpkin chips on a napkin to absorb excess fat and salt them.

Separately, prepare the sauce: mix 150 ml of mayonnaise, a pinch of ground black pepper, half a teaspoon of chili powder, 2 tablespoons of lemon juice and squeezed garlic (3 cloves). Once the roasted pumpkin appetizer has cooled, you can enjoy the sweet and tangy flavor by dipping it into the sauce. Any store-bought sauce with tomato and herbs will also work.

How to stew a pumpkin

Pumpkin is a fruit that contains a large amount of vitamins, minerals, and fiber. Eating pumpkin has a positive effect on metabolism and improves intestinal function. Pumpkin is prepared in various ways; stewing is considered one of the most beneficial for the body.

To prepare this dish, you will need 0.5 kg of fresh pumpkin, 2 tbsp. honey, 300 g dried fruits, cinnamon. Pour boiling water over the dried fruits and leave for 15 minutes to swell. Then drain the water from them and cut the swollen fruits into small pieces. Peel the pumpkin and remove seeds, cut it into small slices and combine with dried fruits.

Any dried fruit will do - prunes, dried apricots, raisins. If you take the mixture, the dish will be even tastier. Transfer the mixture to a saucepan, fill it with water and place on high heat. When the water boils, reduce the heat and continue to simmer the pumpkin.

After 10 minutes, add cinnamon and honey to the dish and mix well. Keep the pan on the stove for another 15 minutes, then remove and wrap it in a warm towel. Let the pumpkin brew for 10 minutes, then serve it.

A light and at the same time nutritious dish is made from pumpkin with the addition of cottage cheese. To prepare it, you will need:

- 0.5 kg pumpkin; - 300 g cottage cheese; - 2 tbsp. butter; - a bunch of parsley; - 1 tsp. salt.

Peel and wash the pumpkin, cut it into thin strips. Then add salt and stir. Wash the parsley well and finely chop it, combine it with the cottage cheese.

For this dish, it is better to use fatty cottage cheese. Place a layer of pumpkin 1.5 cm thick in a roasting pot, and place the same layer of cottage cheese on top. Thus, alternate products by placing them in a container. You need to lay it out so that there is a layer of pumpkin on top, on which you need to put pieces of butter.

Cover the pot with a lid and place it in an oven preheated to 180°C. Simmer the pumpkin for 20 minutes, then turn off the heat and leave the dish to simmer in the oven for another half hour.

You can stew pumpkin with vegetables and rice; in this form it is good as an independent dish or as an addition to meat. For cooking you will need:

- 100 g rice; - 3 tomatoes; - 200 g pumpkin; - 1 carrot; - 1 onion; - 3 cloves of garlic; - greens to taste; - salt to taste. Cut the onion into half rings, carrots into thin rings and lightly fry the vegetables in a vegetable oil pan oil in a deep saucepan. Peel the pumpkin and cut it into small cubes, place it in a saucepan with vegetables and simmer for 15 minutes with the lid closed. Pour boiling water over the tomatoes, peel them and finely chop them, chop the garlic. Combine the garlic and tomatoes with the remaining vegetables, stir, add salt and simmer for 10 minutes.

Rinse the rice and place it in a saucepan, stir. Fill the rice with vegetables with water so that it is one centimeter higher than them. Keep the pan on low heat until all the water is absorbed into the rice. Sprinkle the finished dish with chopped parsley or dill and serve hot.

Preparing the ingredients for a culinary masterpiece

Round pumpkin – 1 kg
Chicken fillet – 300 gr.
Half a medium eggplant
Sweet peppercorn
Garlic clove
Chicken broth -70 ml.
A pack of ready-fried Maggi with onions and carrots (if you don’t have it, fry one onion and one carrot in oil)
Tomatoes - 2-3 pcs.
Zucchini (optional and possible)
Lean oil for frying.

Have you noticed that there is no salt, spices or seasonings in the ingredients? They are all present in the roasting pack. If you fry onions and carrots yourself, do not forget to salt and pepper the dish, add aromatic seasonings of your choice (curry, paprika).

Preparation

Chop the ingredients. Meat in pieces, vegetables in cubes, tomatoes in quarters.
Step by step, in the sense of separately, fry the pepper, zucchini, and eggplant in a frying pan. Place everything in a bowl.
Wash the pumpkin, cut off the top and tail. Set the top aside. It will be useful to us in the future - it will act as a lid.
Remove seeds with a spoon.
Trim the flesh with a knife, which is also useful for the filling. Leave the wall thickness at 1 cm.
Fry chicken fillet in oil, add pumpkin pulp. Fry everything together a little, add a pack of frying, stir. A nuance - it is not necessary to add all the pumpkin pulp. Look at the situation. Our task is to prepare enough filling to fit into the pumpkin.
Send the fried meat to the vegetables, mix carefully.
Transfer the mixture to the pumpkin and add chicken broth. Cover with a lid (aka the top).
Bake in a preheated oven (180 degrees) for 40 minutes.
