Food fanatic. I am a food fanatic. How do you know that you are a food fanatic? I know i am because i'll be grumpy if my food taste is not on par to my standards. I am blessed to have the most amazing cook in my life, my mother. I can assure you that no one cooks as good as her. I love to cook and watch others cook. It's actually not that long ago i started cooking. It all started with the cooking shows on tv. Jamie Oliver, Gordon Ramsay's Hells Kitchen and Bravo's Top Chef. It inspired me to learn more about food and indulge myself into them.
What i did today was creamy pumpkin spaghetti, a recipe i got from a japanese cooking channel on youtube. Pumpkin was never the vegetable of choice for me. But i love the vibrant yellow color of the dish and for me, anything creamy or cheesy will always taste good. The recipe is so simple with very few ingredients. That is what i like about pastas. They are so easy and quick to make. This is also the first time i cook using a pumpkin.
The ingredients are as follows
1. Your protein of choice. (I used chicken, but in my opinion turkey bacon should be the best)
2. Blended pumpkin
3. Fresh milk
4. Fresh cream
5. Salt and pepper.
It took only 15 minutes or less to prepare this dish. As far as the taste, i really like it. It is the perfect choice of spaghetti for me since i like mine to be creamy. It is very well balanced and not too heavy because the rich components come from just the milk and cream without any additional cheese. The wife is not a big fan though mainly because of the pumpkin. She really hates pumpkins. Overall, a dish so simple like this is very suitable for those in a hurry and having a hectic days ahead. Please do try it yourself at home.
