Pumpkin with egg and chives
by
Luke Farrell notes that this forgiving stir-fry can be made with pumpkin, butternut squash or any type of gourd. “It’s a khao gaeng classic, and a good accompaniment to curries. Something green like chives or Thai basil leaves gives contrast.” Serve with plenty of hot jasmine rice.
