Heat the coconut oil in a large non-stick pan over medium heat.
Add the cumin seeds and mustard seeds to the hot oil and let them sputter for 30 seconds.
Add the minced ginger and chopped green chili to the pan and sauté for another minute, until fragrant.
Stir in the diced pumpkin and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
Add turmeric powder, red chili powder, coriander powder, and salt. Mix well to coat the pumpkin.
Pour in 0.5 cup of water, cover the pan with a lid, and reduce the heat to low. Allow the pumpkin to cook until tender, for about 10-12 minutes. Stir occasionally and add more water if needed to prevent burning.
Once the pumpkin is cooked and the water has mostly evaporated, turn off the heat.
Mix in the lemon juice and chopped cilantro leaves.
Serve hot as a side dish with keto-friendly bread or as part of a low-carb meal.
