This morning my fried bought a pumpkin. Then my another friend cooked it. The pumpkin was sliced and then put on hot water. She added some coconut milk, pandan leave, and red sugar. It was delicious and sweet. It is usually served hot but if we add some ice it Will much better for a hot day.
We call it "kolak"

@nawala123 I would bake it, mash it or use it to make soup.

That's new to me, though I cook squash as a dish also with coconut milk and other veggies, some meat or shrimp in it but we never serve it cold or with ice like a dessert. It's more of a dish or viand that goes well with rice. I also make pumpkin soup.

Coconut milk gives creamy taste and the pandan leaves gives scent
