Method

  1. Heat the oil in a saucepan, then fry onions for 8 mins, until softened and just beginning to brown. Add the garlic and pumpkin, then fry for a further 5 mins, stirring occasionally. Stir in the tomatoes and stock. Bring to the boil, then cover and simmer for 15 mins, until the pumpkin is tender.
  2. Meanwhile, cook the spaghetti in a large pan of boiling water according to pack instructions.
  3. Add beans to the sauce, cook for 3-4 mins, until heated through, then season. Drain spaghetti well, return to pan, then stir in the sauce. Divide between serving bowls, then serve sprinkled with the cheese.

    Easy to make, with a punch of flavour. My advise - Go steady with the stock so you can get a consistency you like.

    Very tasty. Kids cleared their plates too! Too much stock though, ended up quite watery. We will definitley be using this recipe again!

    We loved this - so tasty. I did read the other comments first and only used 200ml vegetable stock, using a whole cube, and the consistency and flavour were perfect
