Curried Pumpkin in Tomato Sauce

"This is an excellent vegetarian recipe, full of goodness and so easy to cook. Now that fresh pumpkin is in the shops, there is no need to resort to the canned version. We eat this dish as a side to a meat curry, it is medium in heat, ( hot taste ) and has a thickish gravy. The same basic recipe can be used for squashes, gourds, and even potatoes. There is never any left over and the pot is always clean."
