Garlic & Onion Pumpkin / Calabaza Side Dish

1. 1

   Take off the seeds but leave on the shell and cut into extra large cubes.

2. 2

   The shell will be easier to remove once it's cooked, or it can be left on as well, since it becomes as soft as the pumpkin (but I like it off).

3. 3

   Steam or boil the pumpkin until cooked.

4. 4

   As a variation, if you're steaming carrots as part of the menu, you might want to reuse that same water to boil the pumpkin for an added touch of sweetness.

5. 5

   Chop the onions and the garlic and then saute them in the oil until cooked, but not caramelized.

6. 6

   Top the pumpkin with the onions, garlic and some of the oil (though you don't have to use all of it, just enough to drizzle over each pumpkin cube.

7. 7

   ).

8. 8

   You can serve warm or chilled.
