Directions
Caribbean Pumpkin Curry/Colombo De Giraumon,I’ve been making this for over 10 yrs & it’s one of my favorite recipes. Even people not crazy about pumpkin, curry or ethnic foods swoon over this. Great as a main dish over rice or as a side. I do not eat meat so I omit bacon. In that case, don’t worry about using unsalted butter. If vegan you can use all oil. If you live in a Latino community look for Calabaza in produce dept, otherwise, Butternut or Hubbard squash works wonderfully as well–don’t use anything canned! This is from Elisabeth Lambert Ortiz Complete book of Caribbean Cooking, 1973.,I never add the bacon.
