roasted pumpkin with yogurt sauce
Updated on Nov 25, 2025
Roasted Pumpkin With Yogurt Sauce is a dish that brings out the very best of autumn flavors in the simplest way possible. When pumpkin is roasted, its natural sweetness intensifies, and the edges caramelize into golden bites that feel warm and comforting. The texture becomes tender inside with a slight crisp on the outside, making each piece satisfying on its own. But when paired with a cool, creamy yogurt sauce, the dish transforms into something even more special, a perfect balance of sweet, savory, bright, and earthy.
