Could you not substitute pumpkin for some food?

[Cotty]

You have to use the 2 ingredients chosen.

[Cactussed]

Cotty, I hereby grant you (and only you) special dispensation to use sweet potato instead. As for the rest o' ye scuuuuurvy dogs, back to yer stoves...

[Cotty]

Sorry but sweet potato? Thats why I didn't have a stab at the second competition.

Ill just do a leg in honour of the competition.

Oh FFS, will you stop being difficult. Just do your usual whole animal with a field of root veg and all will be well. You cna pick the pumkin out when you come to eat it, honest.

[trix-a-belle]

could butternut squash not be used as a substitute...? pretty please

[Cactussed]

Yes. In my books, that is pumpkin (or its called that in Australia).

[trix-a-belle]

thats fine then i've got half a one left in the fridge & am going shopping tonight so i'm in.. just need some sort of idea on what to do now... hmmm

good choice. i did initially think you were crazy but thought of a recipe a couple of seconds later. just hope i actually remember to cook this time!

[johnnywgk]

Can i substitute the pumpkin for Hot Dogs, i know where i can get some free LOL

[captainzep]

And can I substitute the Lamb for soup and the pumpkin for egg?

So I can do 'egg in soup', a la Dr Lucien Sanchez?

[zakelwe]

I can't think of anything to cook with pumpkin.

Soup?

[escargot]

Rack of lamb with root veg & pumpkin puree?

[trix-a-belle]

tasty idea escargot!

i'm sorted & hopefully i'm capable enough to pull it off.

much happier that butternut squash is classed as pumkin in cactussed's book

[Cactussed]

Crumbed lambs brains with pumpkin crisps?

tinterweb is awash with lamb & pumpkin stew recipes, take yer pick. maybe soup using the pumpkin as a bowl?

[johnnywgk]

Mmmm strawberry and hot dog soup, garlic icecream croutons, with lashings of hundereds'n' thousand it is then, served in a pumpkin recepticle, with eyes and mouth cut out, so it leaks everywhere.

Think i'm on a winner with my first entry.

i might just make exactly that then pretend i made it from lamb, pumpkin and a spherification kit!
