After Halloween, I just had to find something to do with all the leftovers of pumpkin seeds. Here is an idea that is easy and fast!
Ingredients
  • 1 cup of pumpkin seeds
  • 1 tbsp salt
  • 2 cups water
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
Instructions
  1. After you scraped the insides of a pumpkin and scooped out the seeds, rinse the seeds in a colander. Try to separate them from all the strings.
  2. Cook the seeds with the water and salt. Simply boil for 5-10 minutes. In the meantime, preheat the oven to 400°F.
  3. Drain the seeds, and mix with the oil. Here you can also add some spices to spice-up your life (I made two batches, one with gram masala and one plain as you can see in the picture - but you should be adventurous...). Spread the seeds over a roasting pan to form a single uniform layer.
  4. Bake for 20 minutes. Easy!
