These are great snack to have with drinks and, best of all, they make delicious use of the pumpkins seeds that are typically discarded from pumpkins when carved.

Ingredients
Seeds from one pumpkin
2 tbsp olive oil
½ tsp ground coriander

Scoop the seeds from your raw pumpkin and put them in a colander.

Wash under the cold tap, scraping off the stringy pith. Leave the seeds to dry.

Put the pumpkin seeds in a bowl and add the oil, spices, salt and sugar.

Tip the seeds onto a plate to cool before munching.
