Beans with pumpkin puree

2 servings

60 minutes

Bean with pumpkin puree is a harmonious blend of the rich, earthy flavor of beans and the soft, sweet pumpkin. This dish is inspired by Mexican cuisine, where beans are an essential base for many traditional recipes. The pumpkin adds tenderness and depth of flavor, transforming simple ingredients into a warming and nutritious delicacy. Vegetables stewed with aromatic sage give the puree subtle herbal notes, while garlic and onion add spice. The finished dish can be garnished with pumpkin or flax seeds for a crunchy texture. It is perfect as a standalone dish or as a side to meat and vegetable dishes, providing warmth and comfort with every spoonful.
