Main Ingredients- 1 medium pumpkin
- 1 egg
- 1 slice cheddar cheese
- A little mozzarella cheese (adjust to taste)
Flavor-Enhancing Seasonings- A pinch of salt
- A pinch of black pepper
- A little grated Parmesan cheese (optional)
- A pinch of salt
- A pinch of black pepper
- A little grated Parmesan cheese (optional)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, it’s important to wash the pumpkin thoroughly. Use baking soda to meticulously remove any dirt or wax residue from the skin. After washing, pat it completely dry with paper towels.
Step 2
Place the washed pumpkin in the microwave and cook for about 5 minutes. This will slightly soften the pumpkin, making it much easier to scoop out the insides or cut later. Adjust the cooking time based on the size of the pumpkin.
Step 3
Now, it’s time to cut off the top part of the pumpkin like a lid. Using a knife, make a circular cut about a quarter of the way down the pumpkin. Shape it so you can lift it off like a lid. (Be careful as the knife might slip!)
Step 4
Set the cut lid aside, and use a spoon to carefully scoop out all the seeds and the soft inner pulp from the pumpkin. Removing them cleanly is important so it’s not unpleasant to eat later.
Step 5
Now, we’ll start filling the inside. First, sprinkle a little mozzarella cheese at the bottom of the hollowed-out pumpkin. This helps prevent the egg from running out and adds a savory cheesy flavor.
Step 6
Carefully place the fresh egg on top of the cheese. After adding the egg, sprinkle a tiny pinch of salt and a dash of black pepper to enhance the egg’s flavor. If you like, you can also sprinkle some grated Parmesan cheese for an even richer taste.
Step 7
If you placed the egg carefully without mixing the yolk and white, now use a fork to gently poke and break the yolk. This way, the yolk will cook into a soft, moist texture. (If you prefer to keep the yolk whole, you can skip this step.)
Step 8
Finally, tear the cheddar cheese and arrange it attractively over the egg. The cheese will melt to create a fantastic appearance and taste. Tear it as much as you like and cover the egg.
Step 9
Now, place the filled pumpkin into your cooking appliance without the lid, or with the lid slightly ajar (depending on your preference), and cook. You can use a microwave, oven, or air fryer – any method works! If using a microwave, cook for about 3 minutes until the egg is cooked and the cheese is melted for a delicious Pumpkin Egg Slut. If using an oven or air fryer, cook at 180°C (350°F) for about 10-15 minutes. It’s ready when the cheese is golden brown and melted, and the egg is cooked through!
