Pumpkin and Gram flour

Pumpkin can be cooked in many ways, to create a completely different dish sometimes it's necessary only to add an ingredient, in a recipe that seems, in its simplicity, to be able to get the American ispired and the Arab cultures talking in a long distance dialogue. 

Pumpkin (2 slices approx.)
Gram flour (approx. 3 spoons)

Garlic (very little)

Onion (very little)

Extra virgin olive oil (Sabino-Nomentano or another as delicate)
Rosemary Salt
Freshly picked spices 'provinciali' (thyme, sage, rosemary, laurus, etc.)
White wine from the province of Rome or similar (approx. one glass)
Juniper
Chilli
Vegetable broth (approx. 2 dippers)

Same recipe as for the pumpkin with provincial herbs, chopping the pumpking in small cubes instead of medium-big cubes. When cooked and there's still a bit of sauce, mash to obtain a cream and add gram flour as needed, mix with a wooden spoon adding a dipper or two of vegetable stock, cook for some minutes to create a dense  but not stiff cream. Perfect as side dish or for pasta.
