Chickpea And Butternut Squash Curry Recipes

VEGAN BUTTERNUT SQUASH AND CHICKPEA CURRY

Steps:

• Place chickpeas in a large bowl and cover with cold water. Let soak, 8 hours to overnight.
• Drain and rinse chickpeas under running cold water. Place in a large pot, cover with several inches of water, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until chickpeas are soft, 60 to 75 minutes. Drain.
• When chickpeas are halfway done, heat oil in a large pot and cook onions until soft and translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add cardamom pods, chile peppers, coriander seeds, turmeric, and mustard seeds and toast for 1 minute. Mix in tomato paste.
• Stir butternut squash and carrots into the pot. Add enough water to cover vegetables halfway. Simmer over low heat, partially covered, until all the vegetables are soft, 25 to 35 minutes. Add more water if curry gets too dry.
• Mix in cooked chickpeas shortly before serving and heat until warm. Serve sprinkled with cilantro.

CHICKEN AND BUTTERNUT SQUASH CURRY

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Place squash in a single layer on a baking sheet. Spray with cooking spray and season with salt and pepper.
• Roast in the preheated oven until tender, 20 to 25 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat oil and curry powder in a large pan over medium-high heat for 2 minutes. Stir in onion and garlic; cook until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add chicken, tossing lightly to coat. Reduce heat to medium and cook until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 5 to 8 minutes.
• While the chicken is cooking, melt butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add apples and saute until tender, about 5 minutes. Slowly add in cornstarch. Pour in chicken broth; stir well. Pour into the pan with the chicken, and add roasted squash, coconut milk, and sugar; stir to combine. Cover and simmer, stirring occasionally, until heated through, about 5 minutes.

BUTTERNUT SQUASH AND CHICKPEA CURRY

Steps:

• Start cooking your basmati rice.
• Move oven rack to middle position and preheat oven to 425 degrees.
• Set a medium pot over medium-low heat. Add butter and cook until melted and foam subsides, about 2 minutes. Careful not to burn, (it is ok if the butter browns a bit while cooking. My butter browned and it still tasted great).
• Stir in turmeric, cumin, cloves, salt, cayenne and sugar and cook until aromatic, about 1 minute.
• Stir in tomato purée/ sauce and squash until well combined.
• Transfer to a large casserole dish, (cover, although not specified, I covered to retain moisture) and bake on middle rack of oven until squash is browned and easily pierced with a sharp knife, about 20 minutes.
• Remove casserole from oven. Stir in chickpeas until well combined.
• Return to oven and roast, uncovered, until chickpeas are heated through, about 5 -10 minutes. Season with salt to taste.
• Remove the whole cloves if using.
• Although this recipe does does not call for broth, if you would like more sauce, add vegetable or chicken broth to thin.
• Serve over basmati rice. Garnish with scallions and a dollop of yogurt.
