Step 1
To make your own cream, start by soaking the
Cashew Nuts (30 g)
and
Almonds (110 g)
overnight. Separate the cashews from the almonds. Reserve 3 tablespoons of the water they were soaking in.
Step 2
Add the almonds to a food processor or kitchen ninja. Blend until the almonds are more like a mush.
Step 3
Add the almond mush to a milk nut bag. Squeeze out all the liquid. Add the liquid back to the ninja, add the cashews and the reserved water. Blend until smooth and creamy. You want a 3/4 cup of cream for this recipe.
Step 4
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) and carve out your
Blue Hokkaido Pumpkin (1)
.
Step 5
Chop the
Cremini Mushrooms (50 g)
,
Shiitake Mushrooms (50 g)
, and
Oyster Mushrooms (35 g)
. Mince the
Garlic (1 clove)
.
Step 6
Add
Dried Rosemary (1 g)
,
Rubbed Sage (as needed)
,
Salt (to taste)
, and
Ground Black Pepper (to taste)
to the cream. Fill the pumpkin with the chopped mushrooms and pour the cream on top.
Step 7
Place the pumpkin on a baking pan or dish and roast for about 45 minutes to an hour – or until the skin of the pumpkin is easily pierced with a fork.
Step 8
While the pumpkin is cooking, prepare the
Brown Rice (90 g)
according to the package's instructions.
Step 9
When the pumpkin is finished, let it sit while you wilt the
Fresh Spinach (480 mL)
with the minced garlic and
Lemon (1/2)
in a saute pan over medium heat.
Step 10
Place the rice and spinach on the plates and put the pumpkin on top of one of the servings of rice. Cut the pumpkin down the middle and quickly transfer the other half with its cream to the other plate. Dig in.
