For Baby’s Extra Special Pumpkin Puree You Will Need…

1 lb (2 cups) pumpkin, peeled, seeds removed and cut into chunks (cut them the same size so they cook evenly)
2 gloves garlic (unpeeled)
olive oil
pinch cumin
pinch dried nutmeg
pinch freshly ground black pepper
chicken stock

Preheat the oven to 375 deg F (190 deg C).
Spread out the pumpkin pieces in a baking tray and place the unpeeled garlic alongside them.
Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with the seasonings.
Bake for 20 mins, then remove the garlic and set aside.
Return the pumpkin to the oven and bake for a further 15-20 mins, or until all the pieces are tender.
Place the pumpkin in a food processor, then make a slit in the cooked garlic cloves and squeeze in the roasted garlic.
Blend to a puree, adding enough chicken stock to reach the texture you desire.
Serve warm - and to make the dish look extra tempting, swirl in a little natural yogurt or cream!
