Butternut Squash and Potato Curry Recipe

Ingredients

Click on the links below for advice on growing your own. Eat fresh produce and save money!

  • Oil
  • Onion
  • Potatoes, small scrubbed and halfed (sweet potatoes work well here as well, but I generally like to do half-and-half here as the sweet potatoes lose consistency)
  • Butternut squash, peeled and cubed
  • 400 ml coconut milk (low fat if you like)
  • Chillies (to taste)
  • Madras curry powder or any curry paste

Step by Step Instructions

  1. Fry the onion first, then add the curry powder/paste and the chillies and fry for another 2–3 minutes. If you are using curry powder, ensure that it does not burn by adding some water (or milk if you like).
  2. Add the potatoes and the butternut squash with the coconut milk and leave to simmer for half an hour.
  3. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

Notes

If you do not have coconut milk you can use stock with single cream to taste.

In my opinion the coconut milk does add to the flavour and the low fat variety has as much flavour as the high fat one.

About the recipe

An unusual meal with a bit of a kick – suitable for vegetarians and vegans as well.
