Thai Butternut Squash Curry
Report
Thai butter squash curry also known as Fug-Tong-Gaeng-Dang is fresh tasting, easy to cook mid-week comforting curry. So satisfying and flavorful, your heart would want more on a cold Fall day. It’s creamy, spicy and intensely flavoured dish.

Ingredients
- 1 small butternut squash cubed
- 1 cup tightly packed baby spinach or normal spinach chopped
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil or coconut oil
- ¾ cup onions chopped
- 3 tablespoon celery chopped
- 1 ½ teaspoon ginger grated
- 2 tablespoon Thai red curry paste
- 1 tablespoon curry powder
- salt to taste
- 1 teaspoon fish sauce
- 2 teaspoon brown sugar
- ¾ cup vegetable stock
- 1 cup thick coconut milk or coconut cream
- Handful Thai basil leaves torn toughly
For garnish
- Roasted and crushed peanuts
- roasted cashews
- fresh coriander leaves
- Lime wedges
Instructions
- Heat oil in a pan. Add onions and saute until nicely browned.
- Add celery sticks and grated ginger and continue to saute.
- Cook butternut squash cubes in the pan for few minutes before you add the curry paste.
- Add curry paste and curry powder along with little salt to butternut squash (mind you we will be adding fish sauce later so keep in mind to add less salt).
- Mix well until all the curry paste is evenly coated into the squash.
- Add vegetable broth and allow squash to cook well.
- Once the butternut squash is cooked through, pour coconut milk, add in fish sauce and sugar, and stir.
- Add baby spinach (I used normal spinach, chopped into small pieces), and mix thoroughly well.
- Tear a few Thai basil leaves and sprinkle them over the curry. That’s it, flavor-packed Thai basil curry is ready to be served with hot rice (jasmine, white rice, or brown rice).
