Prepare the Pumpkin: Peel and seed the pumpkin, then cut it into blocks or strips according to personal preference. Cook the pumpkin pieces until they are tender, then drain and set aside.
Prepare the Egg Yolks: Steam or boil the salted duck egg yolks until cooked, then mash them with a spoon or rolling pin until smooth.
Fry the Pumpkin: Coat the cooked pumpkin pieces with a thin layer of starch, then fry them in hot oil until golden brown, then drain and set aside.
Cook the Egg Yolks: Leave a little oil in the pan, add the mashed salted egg yolks, and stir-fry over low heat until bubbles form.
Combine: Add the fried pumpkin pieces to the pan and stir-fry evenly with the salted egg yolks, ensuring the pumpkin pieces are evenly coated.
Serve: Once cooked, transfer the dish to a plate and garnish with a little green onion.

When frying the pumpkin, the oil temperature should be moderate to avoid overcooking the outside while leaving the inside raw.
Stir-fry the salted egg yolks over low heat to prevent burning.
Cook the pumpkin pieces to about 70-80% done, as they will be fried and stir-fried later.
