This dish is amazing , it’s the best of both worlds. Creamy potato and baked pumpkin. We use this as a side sometimes for roast meats or steak or even pulled meat. I have leant to put long folded pieces of foil underneath it to help pull it out . Sometimes (but not very often as we just want to eat it lol ) when I take it out I put some cheese and grill the top .

I finally got to make this. It was really lovely. It didn’t look like the above picture as I had a pumpkin that only fitted after I had cut some of the peel off…this of course caused it to collapse when we tried to get it out. Something to remember – the size of the pumpkin and the size of the slow cooker 🙂
I would also leave off the lid, because when you lift it, the topping comes off with said lid…

I think so yes, if that’s something you can eat 🙂 Or use your normal cheese substitute

Is the alfoil and bakers paper neccessary to stop the underside of the pumpkin from burning?
Oit looks amazingly delicious…

We have made this amazing dish a few times now. Really can’t rate it high enough. Delicious. With left overs I scooped it all out , added some chicken stock , when simmered I blitzed it with a stick blender for soup. Oh my gosh it’s the best. Do try it.
