This recipe is an opportunity to cook pumpkin in an unusual way. I like the sweet taste of pumpkin combined with meat, so I chose the sweet variety of it. You can also replace the pumpkin with potatoes or batata, or you can change the amount of pumpkin at your discretion.
Cut half of pumpkin into moon-shaped slices as shown in the photo. Use a vegetable peeler to peel the skin off.
When the sauce boils, add the pumpkin slices. Cook it over medium heat until the pumpkin become soft (20-25min). Transfer the meatballs to the saucepan and cook for another 10 minutes.
It can serve it as an independent dish or with side dishes like pasta or potato.
You can also use water instead of chicken broth, but the pumpkin flavor will not be as rich. I prefer fresh garlic to garlic powder because it is more flavorful.
