Peel the sweet potato, halve the pumpkin and remove the core with a spoon and cut both into bite size pieces. Add it to a pot with water and boil it until tender (about 30 minutes).
Pour off the water and mash the sweet potato and pumpkin with a potato masher.
Add cream or milk for a creamy and soft texture and season with the spices to taste.
