WHAT'S ON THE AFRICAN MENU? (1) ( PUMPKINS)

The African menu is serving pumpkin grown naturally from my African field with no chemicals added.The pumpkin is very easy to cook not much work is required. Although there are so many methods of serving the very nice vegetable.

Growing up my family and I used to love pumpkins served with tea. We used to place more value on the pumpkin leaves and eat them with pap, but that's a recipe for another day.Today we are looking at the beautiful pumpkin.
