Had this the other night when over at a friends house and it was seriously popular, so I just had to convert it
Quantity - It makes 440g or 1.75 cups.
Ingredients:
500g pumpkin, peeled, deseeded, diced
Olive oil cooking spray
1 tsp ground cumin
110g light sour cream or milk (I used the cream of course)
20g coriander leaves
2 tsp Woolworths Select Moroccan Seasoning
2 tsp cumin seeds
Toasted Turkish bread to serve.
Preparation:
1. Preheat oven to 220oC. Line a baking tray with baking paper. Put pumpkin onto prepared tray and spray with olive oil. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Bake for 20 mins or until tender. Cool.
2. Place coriander in TM 3 secs, Speed 8.
3. Place pumpkin, Moroccan seasoning, cumin, sour cream into TM, 2 secs, Speed 4. Spoon into a serving bowl. Cover and refrigerate until required.
4. Put cumin seeds on a small plate, spray with oil and microwave 1 min on high (or toast in 1 tsp oil in a small frying pan over medium heat) Sprinkle onto dip just before serving.

Members hints or modifications
CP - Can be made ahead of time, just do the toasted seeds on the day so they are not soggy.
Jeninwa - didn't have any sour cream, I used half a block of Philly cheese, I also added some lemon juice. I was thinking it might be nice with some fetta cheese added.
chdv - I finally realized that Moroccan seasoning is also called Ras El Hanout!
Hally - I froze this dip and it defrosted perfectly.
jessie36 - I didn't have quite enough coriander growing so used a small amount of different herbs, parsely, water cress, warrigal greens, things I had growing in the garden - a very success dip.
Bonsai - I cut the pumpkin into wedges and peel it once it's cooked as it's much easier to do, but it does take longer to cook. Roasting a head of garlic at the same time and using it instead of the ras el hanout might be a nice change. I used a butternut pumpkin the first time I made it and a kent today, a paler shade but just as nice.
Maddy - I doubled everything, didn't have fresh coriander so used the "gourmet garden" coriander in a tube.

It does sound nice CP.
-
It sounds tasty CP. A pumpkin dip, vegies everywhere.
-
Always looking for new dips in summer, thanks CP
I have sweet potatoes, will give it a ago instead of pumpkin
-

-
sounds great and I have lots of pumpkins, so I'm on the look out for pumpkin recipes. If you can't get Woollie's Moroccan spices what spices should I use?

Thanks Judy, I was just wondering if I could make it, as if I try to buy it here I'd have to go to a special store, meaning not my regular supermarket. Gourmet food stores here are outrageously expensive. I'll look in Germany next time I go food shopping there.

Thanks Fundj :), I'll try making a batch on the weekend. I think I'll brown off the spices whole and then grind them up (all in the TM of course).
Do you have a recipe for pumpkin jam or is it on the forum or in the EDC book?
Cheryl
-
i only have the quantities, not the method :(

Just made this tonight, to take tomorrow, didn't have any sour cream, I used half a bloke of Philly cheese, I also added some lemon juice. I could have eaten the lot its so nice.
I was thinking it might be nice with some fetta cheese added.
Thanks so much for this recipe.
-
JI used half a bloke

Thanks Judy :) Think I'll try making it tomorrow.
Fundj, your looks completely different. Yes please make notes next time you make it!
We're going to France tomorrow for a grill party, to a lab colleague, so I think I'll make this dip to take with. Maybe I'll run down to our local Villeroy and Boch outlet and see if I cake pick up a nice plate or dish to put the dip on/in.
Thanks for the recipe(s)!!
-
CP everyone love this dip, and all wanted the recipe. I took 2 dips and the other one was hardly touched. Next time I will make it with sour cream promise :D

This will teach me to check what I type, it was in the middle of the night and I couldn't sleep.
If you can find half a bloke of philly cheese you should use him quick. :D :D they don't stay still for long.
-
Too true Jen.
-
Yummy Puffs :-*
How much quantity roughly does this recipe yield?
-
I've made this today Maddy, just measured & weighed it for you. 440g or 1.75 cups.
It is delicious, thanks CP
-
Thanks Judy.
I was making pita pizza's tonight, and I had just thought about this dip making a lovely base sauce, add some shredded chicken, pine nuts, baby spinach & fetta for pizza's........o.k.........just talked myself into making it for next time :P
-
Sounds nice maddy, must remember that one if I have any left tomorrow.
-
Sounds a lovely dip. We are having visitors on Sunday and thought I would give making this a go - do you think it would be ok made the day before. I am thinking that it would be fine and the flavours would develop.
-
yeah I reckon, just do the toasted seeds on the day so they are not soggy
-
Bought the pumpkin, bought the sour cream.....forgot the Moroccan seasoning >:(
Was making this tonight, to take for a lunch tomorrow. Not going back into town again, so what would be a suitable substitute for the seasoning do you think?
Oh-der moment again......looked up a mix on google :P
-
I finally realized that Moroccan seasoning is also called Ras El Hanout! I made a batch last spring, using the recipe from the UK Thermomix site: http://www.ukthermomix.com/recshow.php?rec_id=82 (http://www.ukthermomix.com/recshow.php?rec_id=82).
I took some photos of Ras El Hanout in the making: http://dvfood.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html (http://dvfood.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html)

Thank you CP. :) This is a delicious dip - I can see why your fellow guests made it popular. I took the permission from the UK site link posted by chdv (thanks) and didn't worry about the spice I was missing (allspice). I used fresh ginger and fresh chilli and ground them up with the fresh coriander and other spices. Mine is a little salty so next time I make it I'll be less generous with the mineral salt when I sprinkle on pumpkin before the baking. Next time I'll also reserve some of the little cubes of baked pumpkin for an extra garnish. Yum!
-
CP , have made this dip & 2 others to take to a bbq today, had a taste & so did DH, really delish, thank you
H :)
-
Glad you enjoyed it :-*
-
Out of the 3 dips I made this one was the fav. The bowl was empty.
Thanks CP
H :)
-
I froze this dip and defrosted it today, perfect. Great that you can freeze it.
H :)
-

-
Uni, i know, i would love another, but dh would freak......and of course i woud just stock pile it too.LOL
H :)

Sensational dip CP63. Thank you so so much for this recipe. It's so easy and taste soooooooo good.
-
This is delicious-thank you! It was soooo easy but so tasty :)
-
Thats what I like to hear :-*
-
Made this again on the weekend-still loving it :) thanks CP!
-
Will have to give this one a go next time I have extra pumpkin!
-
Hi Creampuff, made your dip unfortunately I didn't have quite enough coriander growing so used a small amount of different herbs, parsely, water cress, warrigal greens things i had growing in the garden a very success dip. Lovely.
-
Am making this atm but after checking the herb boxes found I have no coriander at all ! ~ so I'll be subbing with parsley and let you know what the verdict is after our picnic lunch at the park. My DD nearly 3 doesn't eat any orange veg so not sure what she'll make of it, my GF's twins may well devour it. Oh, also using butternut squash as I didn't have pumpkin/sweet potato....
Edited to add:
neither of the three children liked it, but GF and DH really liked it so all good there :)
-
A yummy dip. I cut the pumpkin in to wedges and peel it once it's cooked as it's much easier to do, but it does take longer to cook. Roasting a head of garlic at the same time and using it instead of the ras el hanout might be a nice change. I used a butternut pumpkin the first time I made it and a kent today, a paler shade but just as nice.

I'm glad you're enjoying it Bonsai :-*
