If there had to be one ingredient to signal the arrival of autumn, surely it would be the pumpkin. As golden as the changing leaves and found in everything from curries to lattes, year-on-year this eye-catching delicious squash is the undisputed star of the season.
From Lorna McNee's British spin on American pumpkin pie, to chewy glutinous rice cakes, pumpkin is a cheery and bright addition to any dessert.
Savoury squash
Although some people might think of pumpkins as just for pie or carving, they have so much more to offer. For starters, they work just as well in savoury bakes as sweet ones, like cheesy tarts of fluffy rolls. They're also delicious in curries, such as Abby Lee's vegetarian version of kari kapitan, or Will Bowlby's ultra buttery butternut squash with makhani sauce.
Sunshine yellow soups

Shu Han Lee's pumpkin and miso soup is one for people who prefer a chunky soup to something silky smooth. The salty miso balances out the sweet squash, and makes for a comforting lunch that will warm you from your head to your toes.
