Lilly Higgins: Making your own cheesey pumpkin cauldron is a fun trick and treat this Halloween
This fondue is great fun to make and eat, and a delicious seasonal centrepiece. I always use smaller pumpkins as decorations around the house at this time of year and the best part is we can eat them afterwards. The pumpkin is so sweet and tasty once roasted, it makes a perfect cauldron filled with melted cheese sauce. Keep the pumpkin seeds and roast them with herbs and spices to add crunch and flavour.
My first fondue experience was after a busy day traipsing around the Swiss Alps. I was not aware that a hike was on the agenda that day and wore my sandals, much to my detriment. As we sat with our feet in a stream of ice cold water half way down the mountain, my husband promised me the local restaurant made the best fondue. They truly did. We ate quite a substantial amount of cheese that evening, nibbling pickled gherkins and knocking back tiny glasses of kirsch.
Leave carving your pumpkin until the last minute and spray the inside with vinegar so mould doesn’t begin to form. Use a cold LED battery light instead of a warm candle.
