Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Begin by finely chopping the onion and mincing the garlic.
- Grate the ginger root and dice the pumpkin and sweet potatoes into bite-sized pieces.
- 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.
- Stir in the minced garlic and grated ginger, cooking for another 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
- Add the curry paste to the pot and stir well to combine with the onions, garlic, and ginger.
- Cook for about another 1-2 minutes to allow the flavors to blend together.
- Pour in the coconut milk, fish sauce, and add the brown sugar.
- Stir well to ensure the curry paste is completely mixed into the liquid ingredients.
- Add the diced pumpkin and sweet potatoes to the pot.
- Stir to coat the vegetables with the curry mixture.
- Bring the curry to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer.
- Cover the pot and let it simmer for about 20-25 minutes, or until the pumpkin and sweet potatoes are tender.
- Once the vegetables are cooked through, give the curry a final stir.
- Taste and season with additional fish sauce or salt if needed.
- Serve the vegetable curry hot, over cooked rice or with naan bread.
- 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.
