This recipe I picked up on a cruise on my honeymoon in the Whitsundays. Sheree, a chirpy Kiwi girl working at the Solway Lass made it and everybody thought is was great.

1 Butternut Pumpkin
2 Onions
1 Clove of Garlic
1 Teaspoon Cummin
1/4 cup Honey
1/4 cup Sweet Chili

Roast everything until tender and then add:

500ml Coconut Cream
500ml Vegetable stock
500ml Cream

Simmer for 15 mins. Salt & Pepper and Bob’s your uncle.

This is exactly why I love Japan so much. Right there, in a waffle shop – right next to a huge display of fake waffles made in plastic. It’s art.
