Sticky roast pumpkin is a delightful and nutritious dish that combines the natural sweetness of pumpkin with the richness of honey and the aromatic essence of sage. This simple yet flavorful recipe is perfect for adding a seasonal touch to your meals.
- Preheat the oven: Make sure to preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to ensure even cooking and caramelization of the pumpkin.
- Uniformly cut the pumpkin: Cut the pumpkin into evenly sized pieces to ensure they cook at the same rate and achieve uniform tenderness.
- Combine honey and orange juice: Mix the honey and orange juice together thoroughly before drizzling it over the pumpkin for even coating and enhanced flavor.
- Fresh sage: Use fresh sage for the best flavor. If fresh sage is not available, you can substitute it with dried sage, but reduce the quantity to about 1 tablespoon.
- Toss well: Toss the pumpkin pieces in the honey, orange juice, and sage mixture to ensure each piece is well coated.
- Line your baking tray: Line your baking tray with parchment paper or aluminum foil to prevent the pumpkin from sticking and to make cleanup easier.
- Turn halfway through cooking: Turn the pumpkin pieces halfway through cooking to ensure they roast evenly on all sides and develop a nice, sticky glaze.
- Check for doneness: Test the pumpkin's doneness by inserting a fork or toothpick. It should glide through easily indicating that the pumpkin is tender.
Enjoy your sticky roast pumpkin hot out of the oven as a side dish or a main course. Its caramelized exterior and tender interior make it a versatile and delicious addition to any meal. The combination of honey, orange juice, and sage creates a unique and harmonious flavor profile that is sure to impress.
