What do you do with the seeds? Do not throw them away. It makes a good crispy thing to munch on.
Ingredients:
- Seeds from one pumpkin
- Salt - to taste
- Water - 2-3 cups ( for boiling)
- Oil spray - to sprinkle
Directions:
- Cut the pumpkin and scoop out the seeds. To separate the seeds from the stingy core, soak the seeds in a bowl of water for about half hour. The clean seeds will float on the surface of water. Take the seeds out and keep aside.
- In a small saucepan , take the water and add salt to it. Boil the seeds in this salted water for about 8-10 minutes. Drain .
- Spread the seeds on the baking pan and spray the oil very lightly.
- Preheat the oven to 400°F. Bake the seeds for about 15-20 min until they brown on both the sides. You can toss them in between.
- Eat after cooling. Eat as a whole or peel and eat the inner seed.
