Spiral Noodles with Pumpkin and Spinach Sauce

Pasta dishes are always a good idea!

If using frozen spinach, defrost the spinach, or blanch fresh spinach and then squeeze well.

Peel the onion. Dice two-thirds of the pumpkin flesh and the onion very coarsely. Heat the olive oil in a saucepan and sauté the onion and pumpkin pieces in it for a few minutes, stirring, do not brown.

Pour three quarters of the water into the pot and cook the pumpkin for about 15 minutes with the lid closed. Grind everything with a blender.

Cut the remaining pumpkin flesh into cubes of about 1 cm, chop the spinach very coarsely and add both to the pumpkin puree form. Season the sauce with the spices, vegetable soup, salt and pepper and cook for 12-15 minutes until the pumpkin cubes are soft. Then season again.

While the sauce is cooking, cook the pasta in enough salted water according to package directions until al dente, drain in a colander and bring to the table with the sauce. Serve the Parmesan cheese separately.
