Tip

Presented by Shane Delia on Ready Steady Cook (Network 10, Australia), to showcase pumpkin.  Converted for the Thermomix by Roslyn Teirney.  Shane recommends 1/8 pumpkin but he did not say what sort.  I used butternut pumpkin and found there was enough syrup for half a small butternut pumpkin.

    This is a very nice dessert, I slightly overcooked the Pumpkin, but loved the flavours in the  sauce!
