Instructions:
- Begin by finely chopping the onion and mincing the garlic.

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

- Cook for about another 1-2 minutes to allow the flavors to blend together.

- Taste and season with additional fish sauce or salt if needed.

- Garnish with fresh cilantro leaves or a squeeze of lime juice for added freshness and flavor.
Tips:
- Prep Your Ingredients: Have all your ingredients chopped and measured before you start cooking to ensure a smooth cooking process.
- Adjust Spice Level: If you prefer a milder curry, use less curry paste. For a spicier version, add more curry paste or a pinch of chili flakes.
- Cook Vegetables Evenly: Make sure to cut the pumpkin and sweet potatoes into uniform pieces, so they cook evenly.
- Enhance Flavor: For an extra burst of flavor, add a squeeze of lime juice and a handful of fresh cilantro just before serving.
- Storage: Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stovetop.
Enjoy your hearty and flavorful vegetable curry with a side of steamed rice or warm naan bread.
