Cut the pumpkin in half lengthwise; scoop out the seeds with a spoon. Place the pumpkin halves on a microwave-safe plate cut side down; cover them. Microwave on high for 10 minutes. Wrap one half in a kitchen towel and give it a little squeeze. If it gives a bit, the pumpkin is well cooked. Allow it to cool. Use a knife to scrape out the fibers from each pumpkin half; set them aside. Mix the pineapple, sugar, ginger root, and nutmeg in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring frequently. Cook the mixture, stirring frequently, until the sugar dissolves. Add the pumpkin; mix everything well. Cook the mixture, stirring occasionally, for another 30 minutes. Allow it to cool. Remove 3/4 cup of the pumpkin mixture for immediate use. Place the rest of the pumpkin mixture in a sealed container or jar. Refrigerate covered for serving on another occasion.
