Background

After the autumn harvest the winter festivity season starts, so it's good to have a few seasonal and delicious recipes for parties and get-togethers. This simple roast pumpkin fondue is one of those must-do dishes. It's easy to make, it's filling and comforting - and served with a few glasses of mulled wine it's a real people-pleaser!

Ingredients

4 mini pumpkins or round squash (about 500g each)
1 tsp corn starch (cornflour)
150 ml double cream
250g grated Emmental cheese
250g grated Gruyere cheese
2 Tbsp Kirsch
Freshly grated nutmeg
To serve: croutons, toast, vegetable crudités, crostini, fresh bread, baguette

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 180°C.
Cut the tops of the pumpkins, creating a lid, then scoop out the seeds and the membranes.
Mix the cream with the cornstarch and the Kirsch. Grate in the cheese. Add salt and pepper to taste, then a few shaving of grated nutmeg. Mix thoroughly.
Fill the pumpkins with the mixture, put the "lid" on, and put them a baking tray. Roast for 30-45 minutes. It is ready when the pumpkin flesh is tender (check with a fork).
Serve hot - and do scoop the pumpkin flesh into the creamy cheese!
