Dinner: Sweet pumpkin with rice stuffing (Danhobakbap: 단호박밥)

http://www.maangchi.com/recipe/danhobakbap Ingredients: Kabocha pumkin (1½ kilograms, or about 3 pounds), sweet rice, black sweet rice, salt, jujubes, pine nuts,raisins, canned chestnuts, soy sauce, vinegar, green onion, and red chili pepper. Directions: Let's make the rice first! 1. Place 1 cup of sweet rice and 2 tbs of black sweet rice in a small pot. 2. Add some water to the rice and scrub it by hand a couple of times. Rinse, and then drain the water. Repeat until the rice is clean and the drained water is mostly clear. 3. Add 1 cup of water and a pinch of salt to the rice and close the lid. Set aside to soak for at least 30 minutes. 4. After soaking, bring to a boil over medium high heat for about 5-6 minutes. 5. Open the lid and simmer over low heat with the lid closed for 10 minutes. 6. Add 1/3 cup of green peas to the hot rice and mix it up. Set aside. Prepare the kabocha: 1. Cut off the top to make the lid just like a jack o' lantern. 2. Scoop out the insides and set aside. 3. Remove the pits from 8 dried jujubes. Measure 2 tbs raisins, 2 tbs pine nuts with the tips removed, and ½ cup canned chestnuts, and set aside. 4. Place the jujubes on the bottom of the kabocha and add the cooked rice, the raisins, and the pine nuts, in that order. 5. Add more rice on top to fill it out. 6. Open a can of chestnuts and place them over top of the rice. 7. Put the lid back on the danhobak and steam or boil for 30-40 minutes until it's cooked thoroughly. Wrap it in cheesecloth beforehand so you can easily take it out when it's ready. 8. Make sauce by mixing 3 tbs soy sauce, 2 ts vinegar, 1 tbs chopped green onion, and 1 ts red chili pepper in a bowl. How to serve: 1. Open the lid of the kabocha and cut it into 4 pieces with a knife. 2. Transfer each piece to a plate and serve with the sauce. Enjoy the recipe!
