Preparation steps

1.

Cut out a lid from each pumpkin. Remove seeds and scrape out a little from the pulp, leaving a small margin.

2.

For the filling, peel the onions and chop very finely. Mix the onions with wild rice, barley and long-grain rice, season with salt and pepper, and stir in the cranberries.

Stuff the pumpkins with the filling, place in a shallow baking dish, and sprinkle with knobs of butter. Pour in the vegetable broth and cover the baking sheet with aluminum foil. Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F for about 30 minutes.
