Step-by-step cooking
Step 1:
How to fry pumpkin with garlic in a frying pan? Prepare the products. Pumpkin for such a dish is better to take not sweet varieties. Wash the pumpkin, cut it, cut off the peel and remove the core with the seeds. Do not throw away the seeds, dry them in a dry frying pan or in the oven — they are very healthy and delicious.
Step 2:
Cut the pumpkin pulp into small cubes or thin slices, whichever you like best. To make a pumpkin snack more satisfying and with a nice crispy crust (which is perfect for foamy drinks), each piece of pumpkin can be rolled in flour, but in this version the snack will turn out to be more high-calorie.
Step 3:
Peel the garlic and pass it through a press or grate it on a fine grater.
Step 4:
Some people do not like the specific natural taste of pumpkin in the finished dish, it can be disguised using aromatic herbs and seasoning, for example, a pumpkin snack will get a pleasant taste thanks to the addition of several sprigs of parsley and dill.
Step 5:
Pour vegetable oil into the frying pan, heat it up. Put the pumpkin pieces on the heated oil. Add salt and pepper to taste. Fry them until golden brown on one side.
Step 6:
Reduce the heat to medium and fry on the second side also until a light blush forms. Sprinkle the pumpkin slices with grated garlic on top. Keep the pumpkin on the fire for a couple more minutes and then remove from the pan. Those who like the spicy and spicy taste of fresh garlic, can leave some of the grated garlic for sprinkling the finished dish.
Step 7:
Put the pieces of fried pumpkin on a plate. Sprinkle the pumpkin with chopped garlic and fresh parsley and dill on top. Serve to the table. Bon appetit!
