Cooking method

Required products:
Cut off the lid of the pumpkin, remove the seeds and cut out the pulp. I did it with a big noisette. we got such a natural pot:
Soak the mushrooms in boiling water until they swell (about half an hour). When the mushrooms bloom, drain the water, throw the mushrooms into a colander, rinse under running water. Cut into strips.
These "kids" were at first, but became "Heroes":
Cut the carrots into circles, fry in sunflower oil until golden brown. Add finely chopped garlic, fry everything together for a couple of minutes. Transfer to a separate bowl.
Cut the onion into small cubes and fry until transparent.
Cut the pork into small rectangular slices. Add starch, sugar, soy sauce. mix, transfer to a pan with onions, fry for a couple of minutes. Add 1/2 cup water, cover and simmer for 15 minutes. Then add mushrooms, salt, rice vinegar, cover again and simmer for another 5 minutes. Finely chop the dill, add it to the meat with mushrooms, send the carrots with garlic and almond petals, black pepper from the mill, mix well and all this wealth)) stuff the pumpkin. Add a couple of tablespoons of water, cover with a lid. Wrap the pumpkin in foil (first pour a couple of tablespoons of water on the foil) and put in a preheated oven (up to 200 degrees) for 40 minutes.

Note

When I was filling this pumpkin, I sighed woefully, eeehhh, what pumpkins my mother will have ... But my mother now lives very far from us, do not go to her for the harvest))). Eight years ago she retired (in our country it happens at 50), she and her dad immediately got together and moved to Lipetsk. They live in the city during the winter, and spend the rest of the time at their dacha, 50 km from Lipetsk, in the village of Ratchino. Before the move, my mother was never particularly fond of the garden, so only sometimes she planted potatoes, radishes and greens, nothing else in our climate over the summer (without greenhouses) had time to keep up. And here, it's warm, good, 60 acres of black earth, I don’t want soot, And my mother lost her heart))) What doesn’t grow in her, all that our northern soul hungry for vitamins wants))). And mom's pumpkins grow just amazing. But, for me personally, a very unusual pear-shaped. Sweet, tender, tasty ... Eight years have passed since the parents started a vegetable garden, and they still have not decided on the scale of planting, they have to distribute a lot of products to neighbors, since the harvests are just a feast for the eyes, and parents two can't eat everything
And, strangely enough, my husband and I never have breakfast at home, my husband does not take porridge, and I am very indifferent to them ... But when we come to visit my parents, then every day, at 8 am, we all sit down at the table and have BREAKFAST.I wrote this word in capital letters because there is no other way to put it into words. Lard is necessarily cut on the table, I am silent about fresh bread), boiled eggs, honey, butter, sausage and porridge. And of course, the most delicious is pumpkin. And we have breakfast, exchange glances with my husband, smile, where have you seen that ?! But in the village you can see the air is different, the appetite is growing - mom don't cry !!! On such food we swoon with pleasure In general, on vacation we fatten up kilograms, but this does not scare us at all, because we help to work, so that everything is balanced
