1
Soak rolls in water. Clean and wash spring onions and cut into fine rings. Drain the pumpkin and collect the juice. Squeeze the bread roll well. Knead with the mince and eggs.
2
Season with salt and pepper. Fold in spring onions and 2/3 of the pumpkin pieces. With moistened hands form a longish roast (approx. 30 cm length) from it. Place on the oiled fat pan of the oven and roast in the preheated oven (electric: 200 °C/ gas: level 3) for about 45 minutes.
3
In the meantime, peel and finely dice the onion. Cut the rest of the pumpkin into small cubes as well. Clean the celery (put some green aside for garnishing), wash and cut into pieces of about 5 cm.
4
Cook in boiling salted water for about 10 minutes. Drain, collect the cooking water and keep warm. Steam onion in hot fat until transparent. Dust with flour and curry, stir until smooth and sweat briefly.
5
1/4 liter of celery water, cream and 2 tablespoons of pumpkin juice gradually pour in, stirring constantly. Bring to the boil and simmer for 5 minutes. Season sauce with salt and pepper. Arrange meatloaf with celery, pumpkin cubes and the curry sauce on a plate.
