Instructions

  1. Wash the sweet potato, prick all around with a fork and wrap in kitchen paper. Moisten the paper well and cook the potatoes on a plate in the microwave at 800 W for about 8-10 minutes. Turn once or twice.
  2. While the potato is cooking, finely mash the baked pumpkin with a fork.
  3. When the potato is done, remove the paper and cut the potato in half lengthways. Hollow out with a spoon, leaving a small edge.
  4. Mash the pulp with a fork as well. Mix in butter, cheese and pumpkin and season with salt, pepper and spice mixture. If the mixture is too firm, stir in a little crème fraîche. Pour the mixture into the potato halves and sprinkle with cheese.
  5. Bake in a preheated oven at 220 ° C top / bottom heat for approx. 15 - 20 minutes.
  6. Tip: If you don`t have any leftovers from baked pumpkin, cut the peeled pulp into 2 cm cubes, moisten them in a flat form with 1 - 2 tablespoons of oil and season with salt, pepper and possibly a spice mixture. Bake in the preheated oven at 220 ° C until the pumpkin cubes are soft. Mix twice. Depending on the variety, the cubes should be cooked in 20-30 minutes.
