4 tomatoes -- chopped
1 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon cumin seeds
1 can flageolet -- or white kidney beans
1 can sweet corn -- drained
2 cups pumpkin -- cut into small chunks and parboiled
2 tablespoons basil -- chopped

1 tablespoon oil -- to 2 tablespoons, or as needed
salt & freshly ground pepper -- to taste
Saute the onion in a pan and when it is soft, add the garlic and the tomatoes, paprika and cumin seeds. Cook for a further minute or so.
Next, put the beans and the sweetcorn into the pan. When these are warmed through, add the parboiled pumpkin pieces and a little water/milk mix. Stir well.
Cook for 5 minutes or until everything is soft. Then lightly mash the ingredients together with the back of a wooden spoon or potato masher. Season, and add half the basil; stir. Add more liquid as required to get the consistency you prefer.
Cook over low heat and, when hot, scatter the basil on top. Serve with mashed or baked potatoes.
