Instructions

  1. Quarter the pumpkin and (depending on size and need) cut quarters (only one at first!) Into smaller slices of 2-3 cm. Cut the core layer from the slices, peel off the outer edge, dice the pulp and weigh: 500 grams is enough! Peel and dice potatoes up to 300 grams (usually 3 medium-sized potatoes).
  2. Sauté the pumpkin cubes in butter, deglaze with the vegetable stock. Add potato cubes and cover all ingredients with vegetable stock; Let simmer for about 15 minutes, puree everything (or pass through a sieve). Add a touch of nutmeg (preferably freshly grated).
  3. Children also like that and are happy to help! This basic recipe can also be refined with carrots and / or coconut milk, and roasted sunflower or pumpkin seeds round it off.

About Editorial Staff

The Boss Kitchen editorial staff oversees content review, fact-checking, and recipe verification across the site. Published articles pass through the editorial team before going live, ensuring ingredient lists, techniques, cooking times, and nutritional claims hold up in a home kitchen. The team coordinates contributions across the site writers, handles reader corrections, and maintains consistency in measurement conventions, safety guidance, and dietary labeling. Posts under this byline typically represent team-reviewed reference material, site announcements, or editorial roundups rather than individual-author features, and they are held to the same sourcing standards as bylined recipe and product coverage.
