SANKAYA (THAI PUMPKIN CUSTARD)
I was looking around for a good Sankaya recipe and ended up with a hybrid of two. Here it is. I have used a 4.5 lbs pumpkin before but I'll stick to a smaller pumpkin. I use packet coconut milk and realise that it comes in 200ml and not 250ml (1 cup). The steamed pumpkin will not be sweet so you may want to put in more sugar to compensate. Cooling time is about 2 - 3 hours. Chill overnight if desired. If you have Pandan essence, use that. Add 1 cup of Ginko Nuts if desired.

Steps:
- Make sure ingredients are at room temperature.
- Cut a hole from the top and remove the cap.
- Using a spoon remove all the seeds and guts.
- Fill cavity up to 1" from top with water.
- Pour water into a measuring container.
- Note amount of water.
- That will give you a idea if your pumpkin's cavity is too small for the custard filling. Pour water out of container.
- Mix coconut milk, eggs (5 eggs if using 200ml coconut milk, 6 eggs if using 250ml), sugar and extract well in the measuring container.
- Add Ginko nuts if using.
- Pour into cavity leaving 1" space from top.
- If there is too much headspace (too little filling), you can use evaporate milk to make up the shortfall.
- Put pumpkin into a steamer that has boiling water.
- Do not put cap back on the pumpkin.
- Put cap next to the pumpkin in the steamer or on it (see photo).
- Steam for 45 minutes.
- The custard will rise up a bit (that's why we leave 1" space).
- Use a knife or fork and push it into the custard.
- If it comes out clean. It's done.
- Leave to cool to room temperature.
- If you cut the pumpkin when it has not cooled sufficiently, the custard will be runny.
- I would put it into the fridge before cutting. But that's me.
- Enjoy.

Steps:
- Wash and dry outside of pumpkin (or squash).
- Using a sharp knife (and being careful not to cut yourself), cut a "lid" in the top as you would to carve a jack-o-lantern.
- Remove the "lid" and slice off the seedy part, so that you're left with a clean lid or hat; set aside.
- Using an ice cream scoop (or large steel spoon), scoop out the seeds and "guts" of the pumpkin. You may have to get in there with your hands, which is always fun (!). Save seeds to roast in the oven later with a little oil and salt, or discard.
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Break the eggs into a large mixing bowl. Using a fork or whisk, beat the eggs by hand (or use an automatic mixer set to low or medium) - about 1 minute.
- Add the coconut milk and vanilla. Beat again briefly, until well mixed.
- Add the sugar 1/2 cup at a time, stirring as you go, until all sugar is added and has dissolved in the egg mixture. Note: This may seem like too much sugar, but the custard does need to be sweet in order to compensate for the slightly bitter taste of the pumpkin.
- Pour or ladle the egg mixture into the pumpkin (try not to spill any on the outside of the pumpkin, or it may burn. If you do spill, wipe it away with a cloth). Don't overfill - leave about 1/2 inch of room room at the top, since the egg mixture will rise a little out of the hole (it is not runny, so this is fine).
- Set the pumpkin plus the "lid" together in a baking dish (a long, glass dish works perfectly, like the kind you would use to make lasagna).
- Pour about 1/2 inch of water into the bottom of the baking dish (water level should be about a 1/2 inch up the side of the pumpkin).
- Being careful not to spill the contents of the pumpkin, place in the oven to bake for 1 hour at 350 degrees. After 1/2 an hour, check the water level, making sure the baking dish doesn't go dry. Tip: Always add warm (or hot) water, never cold. Cold water could make your baking dish shatter.
- After 1 hour, you should see the custard rising like a bubble out of the pumpkin. Custard is done when an inserted fork comes out clean. You can also poke the top of the pumpkin with a fork to make sure it is soft enough to eat. If necessary, continue to bake up to 10 minutes more.
- Leaving pumpkin in the baking dish, allow to cool, then place in the refrigerator until cold (this will help it "set") Note: The custard may "drop" a little - this is normal.
- To serve, replace the "lid" or "hat" of the pumpkin, or set it slightly askew so you can see the custard. Using a sharp serrated knife, cut the pumpkin into pieces (see picture) and place the pieces on serving plates. Eat as is, or serve warm with a little maple syrup or brandy over each piece.

- Wash your pumpkin thoroughly. Cut a circular opening in the top. It may help to use a glass or small bowl to mark the circle and then use a very sharp knife to cut it out. Scoop out all of the pumpkin insides and rinse to ensure it's clean and smooth inside.
- Mix the palm sugar, coconut milk, salt, and vanilla extract over medium heat until the palm sugar dissolves. Take off the heat and cool back to room temperature.
- Pour the custard into your hollowed out pumpkin, just to the bottom of the circular opening. Place in a steamer and let steam for 45 minutes untouched. Once it's done, allow to cool a bit before touching. Slice into individual pieces and enjoy!
