Ingredients
4 lbs Butternut Squash
1 tbsp Olive Oil
8 Garlic Cloves (minced)
1/2 cup Onion (minced)
1 tbsp Fresh Ginger
2 tsp Ground Cumin
1 tsp Ground Coriander
2 tsp Mustard Seeds
1/2 tsp Turmeric
1/2 tsp Cayenne Pepper
2 cans Light Coconut Milk (13.5 oz cans)
4 cups Spinach
Salt and Pepper (to taste)
Instructions
Peel squash, remove the seeds from the inside and dice it into bite-sized pieces.
In a large frying pan, heat the oil on medium heat. Once heated, add the squash and season it with salt and pepper. Cook for 6-8 minutes or until slightly softened.
To the squash, add the minced onion and cook for 1-2 mins. Then add the minced garlic, ginger, and spices. Cook for 1 more minute.
Add in the coconut milk and reduce heat to medium-low and summer for 10-15 mins (stirring occasionally).
Add spinach when squash is fork tender and stir in until wilted. Add more salt and pepper as needed.
Notes
Be careful not to boil the coconut milk because it can cause it to separate.
Serve on a bed of rice.
You can top with chopped peanuts and cilantro.
4 lbs of butternut squash is ~5-6 cups of chopped squash.
