Dice the unpeeled (but well scrubbed) pumpkin and cook it in a little vegetable broth until soft. Drain the vegetable broth and then mash the pumpkin with a potato masher. Add the cornmeal and egg and mix well. Season with honey, vinegar, soy sauce, nutmeg, pepper, and cinnamon. Season with salt if desired. Using a large spoon, drop the relatively soft mixture in portions into a hot pan with cooking oil. Turn over after a few minutes. The pumpkin fritters taste great with yogurt sauce.
