Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 large onion, peeled
5 cloves garlic, peeled
1 dried chili, or 1 teaspoon dried red chili flakes, or to taste
2 tablespoons neutral oil, like grapeseed, corn or canola
Salt and pepper to taste
1 tablespoon curry powder, or to taste
1 cup chopped tomatoes (canned are fine), optional
1 1/2 pounds peeled winter squash, like butternut or firm pumpkin, cut into 1-inch cubes

Steps:

  • Combine onion, garlic and chili in container of a food processor and grind until pasty. In a large skillet or casserole that can be covered, place oil and put over medium heat. Add onion mixture, salt and pepper and curry powder. Cook, stirring occasionally, until onion mixture begins to brown, 5 to 10 minutes.
