- Cut the top off the pumpkin and discard.
- Scoop out the seeds and stringy membrane, and discard them as well.
- You could toast the pumpkin seeds in the oven for a snack if you like, but they are not used in this recipe.

- Stir in the stew, sherry and corn.
- Bake the stew-containing pumpkin at 325° F for about an hour, or until the pumpkin is tender.
