Remove the pumpkin from the heat, add salt and pepper to taste it and blend it in a food processor.

Step 4
Add the spaghetti to the pan with the pumpkin and cook over low heat until the sauce is creamy, stirring all the while. Continuing to stir, add the Parmesan and salt to taste (be careful, because the Parmesan is already salty).
