Ghapama is a festive Armenian dish made by hollowing out a small pumpkin and stuffing it with cooked rice, dried fruits (like apricots, raisins, and prunes), honey, and toasted nuts (usually almonds or walnuts). The stuffed pumpkin is baked until tender, then sliced and served warm as a main or dessert during Christmas, New Year, or special family gatherings.

This dish is as much a cultural symbol as it is a meal, and it’s often accompanied by a traditional folk song called “Հէյ Ջան Ղափամա” (Hey Jan Ghapama).
