"AMAZING. Only thing I'd change is no pumpkin seeds and/or add pine nuts instead. I watched the episode, and the "pepitas" Aarti used didn't look like pumpkin seeds. I tried store-bought pumpkin seeds tonight, and they were *meh*. Not needed -- fabulous without 'em.

"This is a great base recipe -- all you need are fresh ingredients and a food processor :) The olive oil is totally unnecessary in this recipe. I prefer a Serrano (or Serranos) pepper in this instead. Cumin is good in it, too -- that might help those who think this is missing something.
