Recipe Ingredient
- 1 kg pumpkin (pick one that has a good shape and nice colour)
- 6 eggs
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 3/4 cup coconut cream (pati santan)
- 100g brown sugar
Instructions
- Cut off the pumpkin top (the part with the stem) and retain it as a lid. Do not cut too big an opening. Scoop out the seeds and pulp, leaving a thick layer of flesh inside. Wash and rinse out well, then pat dry.
- Beat the eggs, salt, coconut cream and sugar together with a hand whisk. Strain and pour the mixture into the pumpkin. Cover it with the cut-out lid.
- Place the pumpkin in a steamer and steam for 30 to 40 minutes or until custard is firm and pumpkin is tender. Test with a skewer, then cool and put in the refrigerator to chill overnight.
- Remove and cut into thick wedges and serve.
