Preparation method

How do you make this?

Preheat the oven to 180°.

Lay the pancetta flat on a baking sheet and bake for about 10 minutes in the oven until crispy.

Place on kitchen paper.

Sauté the finely chopped onion, sage, and garlic in the oil and butter until nicely browned.

Add the finely chopped Swiss chard, let it sauté briefly, and then add passata and sun-dried tomatoes.

Season with pepper and salt, nutmeg, curry powder, and balsamic, let simmer for another 5 minutes.

Mix all the ingredients for the ricotta mixture together.

Now make layers of the peeled pumpkin slices, Swiss chard tomato sauce, ricotta with pancetta on top, finishing with Swiss chard tomato sauce, and place the sliced mozzarella on top.

Gently massage the sage leaves with some oil so they cook nicely and place them on top as well.

Bake for at least an hour, so the pumpkin slices are soft, and you have a nice brown crust.

Do the test with a skewer to see if the pumpkin is cooked.
