Spicy Pumpkin Curry Delight

Today’s Creation: Spicy Pumpkin Curry

Greetings, foodies! Today, I am excited to share my recipe for a Spicy Pumpkin Curry. As the fall season arrives, I love exploring new ways to incorporate seasonal ingredients into my cooking. This dish is perfect for chilly evenings when you crave something warm and comforting with a kick of spice.

Ingredients:

• 500g pumpkin, diced
• 400ml coconut milk
• 2 green chilies, sliced
• 1 onion, chopped
• 3 cloves of garlic, minced
• 1-inch piece of ginger, grated
• 2 tbsp curry powder
• 1 tsp turmeric
• 500ml vegetable broth
• Fresh coriander leaves, for garnish
• Salt, to taste
• Pepper, to taste

Kitchen Tools:

• chef’s knife
• cutting board
• large pot
• wooden spoon
• blender

To begin, heat some oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the chopped onions, garlic, and ginger, sautéing until fragrant. Stir in the curry powder and turmeric, allowing the spices to bloom for a minute.

Next, add the diced pumpkin, sliced green chilies, coconut milk, and vegetable broth to the pot. Season with salt and pepper, then bring the mixture to a simmer. Let it cook for about 20-25 minutes, until the pumpkin is tender.

Once the pumpkin is cooked through, carefully transfer the mixture to a blender and blend until smooth. Be cautious when blending hot liquids to avoid spills.

Return the curry to the pot and adjust the seasoning if needed. Let it simmer for a few more minutes to allow the flavors to meld together. Serve the Spicy Pumpkin Curry hot, garnished with fresh coriander leaves.

This delicious Spicy Pumpkin Curry weighs approximately 1200g after cooking, with roughly 4 servings. Each serving is around 300g, with an estimated calorie count of 250 per serving.

One unique tip for this recipe is to add a squeeze of fresh lime juice before serving. The acidity of the lime enhances the flavors of the curry and adds a bright pop of citrus.

I hope you enjoy trying out this Spicy Pumpkin Curry recipe and feel free to make it your own by adjusting the spice level to suit your taste preferences. Happy cooking!
