Ingredients

• 1 kg Pumpkin-peeled, 300 gr Atap seeds, 1,4 lt Water

• 300 gr Jackfruit-sliced, 5 cm Cinnamon, 75 gr Sugar

• 2 Pandan leaves-knotted, 225 gr Coconut sugar, Salt

• 600 ml Coconut milk, 15 gr Ginger-bruised

• 2 Kaffir lime leaves, ½ tbsp Rice flour (optional)

Directions

• Cut pumpkin into ~ 4x4 cm cubes. Remove all seeds, but leave the fibrous strands/pulp intact. Set aside. In a big pot, cook water with all sugar, salt, leaves & herbs over low heat until the sugar melted & the flavor blended.

• Put pumpkin chunks into the pot. Turn the heat to medium & bring it to a simmer until the pumpkin starts to soften. Pour in coconut milk. Bring it to a boil; stir the stew often. Keep on cooking it until the pumpkin tender (testing it with a fork). Stir in the jackfruit & atap/toddy palm seeds; cook just for a while, until the flavor blended (don’t over-cooked the jackfruit).

• Mix rice flour with a little water just to dissolve it. Pour mixture into the stew & keep on stirring it until the liquid rather thicken. Remove from the heat.

• You can serve the stew either warm or chilled (refrigerated for few hours or serve it with ice cube). Serves: 6-7 portion.
