    Preparation Steps

    1

    Peel, deseed, and dice the butternut squash into medium-sized cubes. Finely chop the onion, garlic, and ginger.

    2

    Heat the olive oil in a large skillet or pot over medium heat. Add the onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes.

    3

    Add the garlic, ginger, and curry paste to the skillet and stir well. Cook for 1-2 minutes, until fragrant.

    4

    Add the butternut squash cubes and toss to coat them in the spiced base. Season with salt, pepper, and chili flakes (if using).

    5

    Pour in the coconut milk and bring to a simmer. Reduce the heat to low and cook for 15-20 minutes, or until the butternut squash is tender.

    6

    Stir in the lime juice. Taste and adjust the seasoning if necessary.

    7

    Garnish with fresh cilantro before serving. Serve with steamed rice or naan bread.
