First time I had that was when I lived in England in 1999. I was told by my African friend Hawa that it is the national dish of Serea Leon . She cooks the pumpkin leaf dried powdered out with palm oil and meat we enjoyed it with white rice. I love toasted pumpkin seeds everything on the pumpkin can eat and is very healthy and nutritious.

Tyrone, as a Jamaican i have eaten it a few times when in pumpkin season because I will never eat a plate of food without vegetables in it. As a product of Northern Caribbean University, i eat very clean just like quite a few SDA people and rastarian, hence, i would search the internet to find what i could eat from the natural vegetation. I ate Spanish needle, pumpkin leaves, etc, but I never got to try dasheen leaves (Trinidadian callaloo) nor cassava leaves, I think even the gully beans). If I was in JA now, hey every not one day would pass without me not having some green vegetable each day. The only reason that sometimes I might not go out to get it is if I have carrot, tomatoes, avocado or beets (and the beet root leave are very good to eat). In Jamaica, we just need to apply some common sense with knowledge, continue to plant, we don't farm enough because people get tired of rice a lot of times. The reality is, any vegetables fruit leaves can be eaten because the animals eat it.
