Boil water in a large pan and add salt and pumpkin seeds. Boil for about 10 minutes and drain.
Stir in butter and spread the seeds in a baking tray, evenly.
Bake for about 30-40 minutes; make sure to stir every 10 minutes or so. Cool off completely before enjoying your snack.

  7. Dear Madhu
    I always remove the husk, fry and eat. I could not develop taste for the seed with the husk.
    Actually I get de-husked seeds from Korea in nice packs And make some dishes out of it.
    Have a nice day
