Method:

First cut the top off of your Pumpkin and scoop out the flesh. Then cut it into inch thick segments. Chop your onion and chillies into large chunks, then cut the bottom off of your garlic. And all of your veg and rosemary onto a roasting tray a drizzle in olive oil. Roast your veggies on a medium heat for roughly 45 mins or until your Pumpkin has softened and started to char.
