This simple, easy to make dish, has been in my repertoire for at least 10 years. It is Indian in origin but I serve it with almost anything. I like to buy a beautiful perfectly formed small orange pumpkin to keep as a decoration on my side board and after some time has passed, we sacrifice it to this dish. Yum!
