Glad to hear you have enjoyed there as well. Enjoy making this at home - this recipe is a little lighter on the sweetness than you may typically find in restaurants, but you can adjust a little to taste.

We just ate at an Afghan restaurant in Brighton last weekend and it may have been even better. Kaddo bowrani is one of my very favorites! Thank you for the recipe. I’m definitely going to make it!

I can pretty much guarantee it will be the same place! It has been there for many years and as best I know, there isn't and wasn't previously another Afghan restaurant in the city. Glad you had equally good memories and hope you enjoy making yourself!

I landed here searching for an "Afghan pumpkin recipe" because of a craving and a memory of a dish I had years ago in an Afghan restaurant in Cambridge. I'm delighted by the coincidence that this recipe is likely inspired by the same place!

Thanks, I agree it's not complicated but works so well. The slightly sweet squash is nicely balanced out by the more savory yogurt. I understand it seems unusual but it definitely works!

It's not exactly something you see that much, but worth trying if you do! The restaurant in Cambridge is called Helmand.

This sounds heavenly! I've never had Afghan food either, but I definitely want to try it now!

I love the simplicity and straightforward nature of this side dish, Caroline! Curious how the garlic yogurt sauce plays with the sweetness of the cinnamon sugar.

for me this is very unique and I am loving all the fall flavors then with that yogurt topping this must be a delicious plate of healthy deliciousness! WOW

You are correct in your guessing that I haven't been to an Afghan restaurant! You've got me intrigued though, this looks amazing and perfect for fall. Next time I'm in Cambridge I'll have to check out the spot that inspired this once I try to make it! What's the name of the restaurant?

Thanks, it's very true, most people tend to think of pumpkin as puree but you can treat it like squash too. This is an easy, tasty way to try!

But I don't see why not, we eat all kinds of other squashes roasted!
