Hi five! Hi, five!
Let's start!
With a sharp knife, cut a geometric figure at the center-top of the pumpkin
Carefully remove the pumpkin 'top' and keep.
so cut the internal part of the hat
Using a spoon, remove the seeds and fibers of the pumpkin until clean
now it's nice. It is empty.
Lightly wash the inside of the pumpkin with some cold water.
Place the coconut milk in a bowl and microwave for 30 seconds to make it more liquid
In a large bowl, add the eggs, sugar, and pinch of salt. Lightly beat using a whisk.
Mix well
Add the coconut milk and continue mixing until all the ingredients are well integrated.
to cook the pumpkin, we need a large pot like this , and a 'stand' inside the pot
add enough water
Place a bowl on top of the 'stand' (in the pot). Place the pumpkin in the bowl.
Pour the custard inside the pumpkin. We don't need all the custard, it is filled
Place the pumpkin 'hat' next to it in the bol (do not cover the pumpkin with its 'hat').
Cover the entire pot and place on the stove. Cook on medium-high heat. We are basically steaming the pumpkin.
so the final step is to cook on medium-high heat for around 45-50 minutes.
So, it is ready and through the cooking make sure there is enough water so the steam continues.
check that the custart is ready by inserting a knife in the middle of the custard - the knife should come out clean.
you can steam left over custard in bowl for extra custard!
Remove the pumpkin from the bowl. Place on a plat and let cool down at room temperature.
Look at this , so now the pumpkin cool down at the room temperature. Not cold, Not hot
Serve at room temperature. Cut slices around the pumpkin to get a slice of pumpkin with some coconut custard!
Look at this beauty, Yummyy!!!
Bon Appetite!!!
It is Super easy.
