Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.
Not to be confused with evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk is very sweet (and very sticky) and used primarily in desserts.

Curry flavors always make me nervous because they can be overpowering very easily. Normally seeing 1 tbsp in a recipe turns me off but then I realized that was to serve 12 people. I think the pineapple really balanced it out and we enjoyed this dish. I cut it down to serve only 4 people and reduced the cooking time as suggested.

I thought this recipe was wonderful and quite simple. I halved the recipe and substituted green peppers for onions due to a personal taste preference. If you cut the recipe in half, reduce simmer time to about 15 minutes. I also added a dash of cayenne pepper. Great recipe! I'll definitely make it again.
