👉🏻Ingredients list⚠️

Baby Pumpkin: 1
Garlic: 4 cloves (adjust according to taste)
Olive Oil: as needed
Cornstarch (or regular starch): 3 tablespoons
Salt: a pinch
Black Pepper: to taste

👉🏻✨DIRECTIONS:

Clean the baby pumpkin, remove the seeds, and cut it into uniform small pieces.
Finely chop the garlic and place it in a bowl with the pumpkin pieces.
Add olive oil, cornstarch, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until the pumpkin pieces are evenly coated with the seasoning.
Preheat the air fryer or oven to 180°C. Place the pumpkin pieces in and roast for 15 minutes, then flip them over and roast for another 10 minutes.

👉🏻✨TIPS

Try to cut the pumpkin pieces into uniform sizes to ensure even cooking time.
The amount of garlic can be adjusted according to taste, but it is recommended not to use too much, as the garlic aroma may overpower the sweetness of the pumpkin.
The temperature and time in the oven or air fryer may need to be adjusted according to specific conditions to ensure that the pumpkin is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.
