I enjoyed this mix of spices with the squash. I like the flavor of acorn squash, but not the texture, so I made this as a soup (I'm not rating it because of the changes I made). I used about 4 cups of cubed acorn squash, omitted the potatoes, and added an onion. I added cayenne, salt, and pepper, extra water, and some tahini (for creaminess, as I had no milk). I pureed this, and am enjoying now. Thanks for such a flexible recipe! -
Fine, indeed! Serves 2 most likely as a main dish; serves 4 - 6 as a side sish. Very easy and straightforward and very yummy. I opted out of the potatoes as I made this to serve with recipe #35788 and jasmine rice. Enjoyed the celery in this. The squash (I used acorn) needed 15 - 20 min simmering time till soft. I didn't add soy creamer as it's great without, but could consider it for another time. I love all the spices used in this recipe. Thanks for a great curry squash recipe!
