Step 1
Wash the pumpkin and remove any unpleasant spots. Cut in half, scrape out the seeds and fibers with a tablespoon. Cut into equal wedges and place on a baking sheet lined with baking paper.

Step 5
Alternatively, prepare the dumplings in a pot. To do this, bring plenty of water to the boil, salt lightly and reduce the heat until the water is just simmering. Carefully place the dumplings in the simmering water, let them steep in the water for about 15-20 minutes, lift them out with a slotted spoon and drain them well.
