    Cook's tips

    Make this in advance, then cool and freeze until needed. Thaw thoroughly before reheating at 180c for 20 minutes. Cover the top with foil if the topping starts to get too brown.

    Drinks recommendation

    The goat’s cheese is helped by a refreshing white, but one with enough body and texture to hold its own against the pumpkin. The Loire is the perfect hunting ground for wines like this. Try La Grille Classic Barrel Fermented Chenin Blanc, Anjou, Loire, France.
