a couple of minutes until lightly browned. Mix together ingredients
for Sweet Tomato Sauce in a bowl then add to pumpkin mixture in fry

cooked and most of the liquid has evaporated. (I dont know how its
going to evaporate if the pan is covered....-B.) Mix together the

sauce on a plate and lay the pumpkin on top. Top with remaining
yogurt and any cooking juices left over. Sprinkle with dry mint. May
