Don’t let those beautiful pumpkins go to waste (did you know that most Halloween pumpkins end up in the trash…and eventually in a landfill?)! We’ve whipped up this wicked quick, wicked easy pumpkin (feel free to sub for squash) curry that’ll be the perfect belly warmer for these winter months. A lil’ Thai flavour gives this smooth curry a kick, with freshness from coriander and a protein punch from the humble chickpea. Make big batches of this if you have a bunch of pumpkins decorating your windows, ideal to freeze and reheat when you need some delicious comfort food!

Ingredients

  • 3 cups peeled and cubed pumpkin or squash
  • 2 Tbsp grapeseed oil or vegetable oil
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 2 Tbsp minced fresh ginger
  • 2 Tbsp minced fresh garlic
  • 1 aubergine (eggplant), cubed
  • 4 Tbsp yellow (or red) Thai curry paste
  • 2 cans (14 oz/400 g each) light coconut milk
  • 2 Tbsp brown sugar
  • 1 tsp ground turmeric
  • Pinch salt & black pepper
  • 2 tins (14 oz/400 g) chickpeas, drained
  • 2 Tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 cup veg broth to thin as/if needed
  • 1 small red chili, chopped (optional)
  • 1 Tbsp macerated coconut, for garnish
  • ½ bunch coriander, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350ºF (180ºC) and roast cleaned and chopped pumpkin for 20 minutes, or until soft.
  2. Heat a large saucepot on medium high heat, add oil, onion, ginger, and garlic and saute for 2 minutes.
  3. Add aubergine and curry paste, stir to cook for a couple minutes.
  4. Add cooked cubed pumpkin, coconut milk, brown sugar, turmeric and pinch of salt and bring to simmer, then add chickpeas and lemon juice.
  5. Simmer for a good 10-15 minutes to meld flavours, adding veg broth if needed for thinner consistency.
