Well Pimp my Pumpkin!

I went out to my local M&S as I really wanted to try some new foods and see what specials they had in store. The first thing I came across was this pumpkin. Not your average pumpkin. This one was a puff pastry burger pumpkin. Read on to find out more.

M&S Hocus Pocus Pumpkin

"Super Sized Sharing Beef Burger with Cheddar & Onion Hiding Under Pumpkin Shaped Golden Puff Pastry, From Select Farms - we know and trust."

I had this last night and I followed the recipe. It came out perfectly. It wasn't even that much of a faff to cook. Take out of the fridge and let it rest for 5 minutes. Then you egg wash it and place it in a pre heated oven and tray with foil and cook for 40 mins. After which you rest for a couple of minutes and 'Bob's your Dad's Brother!' The pastry was golden and flaky. I cut the pumpkin burger in half. The pastry gave such a nice crisp sound as I cut into it and the burger... let me tell you about the burger. It was fat and juicy and cooked to perfection. One thing I forgot to mention was under the pastry, there was a cheese layer. This melted into the pastry and it was like eating a cheese straw with the burger. It was just divine!!

No wonder this went out of stock quickly. I'm glad I managed to get one in the week. I really hope M&S bring this out again next year or even decorate it in a different way for another calendar event. This was by far a very 'Boo-tiful' burger!
