Ingredients
- 2 medium butternut squash peeled and cubed (6 cups)
- 1 onion quartered
- 5 garlic cloves peeled
- 3 tablespoon olive oil divided
- ½ salt
- 4 cups vegetable stock
- ½ cup coconut cream
- ¼ cup fresh lemon juice
- 2 teaspoon miso chili paste
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 2 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon turmeric powder
- 1 teaspoon ground ginger
- 2 cans butter beans rinsed and drained
Instructions
- Prepare the vegetables: Peel and dice the butternut squash into small cubes. Peel and quarter the onion. Peel the garlic cloves.
- Roast the vegetables: Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Toss the butternut squash, onion, and garlic with 1 tablespoon olive oil and salt. Spread them on a baking sheet and roast for 25–30 minutes, or until the squash is tender and slightly caramelized.
- Blend the sauce: Transfer the roasted vegetables to a blender. Add vegetable stock, coconut milk, and fresh lemon juice and blend until smooth.
- Toast the spices: Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add paprika, cumin, turmeric, and ginger and stir for 1–2 minutes until fragrant.
- Combine and simmer: Add the butter beans to the pan and pour in the blended squash mixture. Stir well and let it simmer over low heat for 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
- Serve and enjoy: Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Serve hot with basmati rice, naan bread, or crusty bread.
Notes
- Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. Reheat on the stove with a splash of water if needed.
- Recipe Tip: Roasting the squash deepens the flavor and enhances the creamy texture—don’t skip this step!
