Method

  1. 1

    Two days ahead, start sprouting your lentils or mung beans. Rinse them a couple of times a day until they sprout.

  2. 2

    Fill a pot with a few inches of water, set the steamer over it and bring it to a simmer.

  3. 3

    Cut the pumpkin into even chunks so it cooks through. Rinse the greens and the sprouts.

  4. 4

    Layer the steamer with the pumpkin at the bottom, the sprouts in the center and the greens on top.

  5. 5

    Sprinkle the curry powder and the salt over the layers, then cover the pot.

  6. 6

    Steam until everything is tender, especially the pumpkin. A fork should slide in easily.

  7. 7

    Move everything to plates. Drizzle with the soy sauce and the coconut cream, then add more salt to your liking.

  8. 8

    Slice the avocado and serve it on the side.

Good to know
  • Start sprouting 2 days before you plan to cook.
  • Season with any spices you like. Curry seasoning works well here.
  • Cut the pumpkin into smaller pieces if you want it to finish at the same time as the greens.
