Daughter's First Bare Bum Whipping

Stir pumpkin and raw peanuts - Pumpkin and peanut jumped

In my basket AMAP this fortnight, I received a small pumpkin and I was wondering what I was going to do. With half, I made a soup - good, tasty soup with mixed vegetables that I cooked with a bone that my butcher gave me! Yes, my butcher is accustomed to my unusual requests. He said that nobody did the soup and even less with bones in it!

I used the rest of my pumpkin to make this jump. In this way, I also used some raw peanuts I bought at the store and dragged Turkey into the wardrobe. I'd like to share this recipe that I loved the simplicity - but in no way wanted to suggest a lack and flavors, textures, beauty or nutritional value.

In my CSA box this fortnight, I received a small pumpkin and was wondering what to make with it. I used half the pumpkin in a soup - a nice, flavourful mixed vegetable soup, which I cooked with a bone that my butcher gave me! Yes, my butcher is used to unusual requests from me. He said almost no one made soups at home anyway these days, let alone with bones!!!

I used the remaining pumpkin to make this stir fry. This way, I used up a bit of the raw peanuts that I had brought in a Turkish shop and that were lying around in the pantry. I would like to share this recipe of which I loved the simplicity – but that did not in any way mean that it lacked flavour, texture, beauty or nutritional value.
