Step 1 of 8: Remove the casing from the sausage, crumble it and brown it in a pan with a drizzle of oil until thoroughly cooked. Transfer it to a bowl and set aside.
Step 2 of 8: Cut the pumpkin into cubes and cook it in the same pan with the garlic, a sprig of rosemary and a pinch of salt. Let it soften, then remove the garlic and rosemary.
Step 3 of 8: For the béchamel sauce, melt the butter in a small saucepan, add the flour and stir for about one minute until obtaining a smooth roux.
