Method

1 / 7
  1. 1. Remove the skin of the pumpkin. Also remove the inner seeds.

  2. 2. Cut the flesh into 2cm cubes.

  3. 3. Take the zest off the oranges, with as little pith as possible, and cut into matchstick-sized strips.

  4. 4. Extract the juice from the oranges. Remove the seeds from the cardamom pods and reserve.

  5. 5. Place the pumpkin, orange juice, orange strips, sugar and whole cardamom pod seeds in a large pan, mix well and leave to marinate for about 10 hours or overnight. Stir occasionally.

  6. 6. Bring the mixture to the boil, then reduce the heat and simmer until the liquid has thickened and become syrupy. This can take about an hour or a little bit longer.

  7. Leave to cool then place in clean, dry jars. Enjoy!
