Ingredients:
2 Tbs. olive oil
1 garlic clove, puréed in a press
2 cups pumpkin, peeled and cut into 1-inch cubes
1 cup tomato juice
1 cup seeded, coarsely chopped tomatoes
1 Tbs. chopped tarragon
1 Tbs. chives
Salt and pepper

4 servings

Heat the oil gently over low heat in a skillet or pan that has a lid. Add the garlic and the cubed pumpkin to the pan. Lightly cook the pumpkin over medium-low heat until it begins to change color. Add the tomato juice, cover tightly, and cook over low heat for 30 minutes.

Add the chopped tomato and cook, uncovered, over medium heat for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the chopped herbs, season with salt and pepper to taste, and serve hot.
