My 4th and final pumpkin project’s Pumpkin & Egg Fried Rice. It’s been quite a challenge trying to come up with different ways to cook a pumpkin but I think I’ve been successful. This is an easy quick stirfry made with leftover rice and it’s really quite delish.. 🙂

Ingredients:

  • 400g leftover cooked cold rice
  • 100g pumpkin, cubed into small pcs
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 onion, roughly chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, chopped
  • 1 tbsp light soy sauce
  • salt & pepper to taste
