Heat a teaspoon of oil in a pan on medium flame, add the grated pumpkin, sprinkle some salt to taste and stir fry until the pumpkin wilts down. Cover the pan and cook for 3 to 4 minutes and your pumpkin will be cooked.

In the meanwhile, whisk the yogurt in another bowl along with some salt, red chili powder, roasted cumin powder and coriander. Finally stir in the cooked pumpkin into the yogurt mixture.Adjust the salt and spice levels and adjust to suit your taste.
