Observations

What to associate this sauce with?
You can use this sauce to accompany pasta, but also as stuffing to make ravioli, or stuffed vegetables. You can also add it in a simple mashed potato to improve it and give it a fall taste!

Can I make this sauce with another squash?
Yes it is possible, do not hesitate to make this sauce with butternut squash for example!

What to replace rosemary with?
If you have thyme, you can use it!

How to roast the pumpkin?
You can roast it in a frying pan in olive oil and spices or in the oven, depending on the size of your pieces, but you can cook them (seasoned the same way) in the oven at 200°C until they melt.
