Warming Butternut Squash Stew

I came across this recipe a while ago online but as usual, I've changed it to suit me. I love this stew to make ahead and have for quick dinners as a light but filling meal. This serves about 4-6 people, but I find it often does less because we all want seconds.

Ingredient

Food ration :

6 servings

Cooking time :

1 hour

Butternut Squash

Onion

3/4 cloves

garlic

large red pepper

300 g

- 500g peanut butter

400 g

chopped tomatos

1 tablespoon

tomato puree

1 1/2 tablespoons

cumin

1 tablespoon

chilli powder or flakes

1 tablespoon

paprika

500 ml

vegetable stock

400 g

kidney beans

100 g

spinach

Cooking instructions

* Step 1

Peel and dice the squash into medium chunks (think a really big mouthful. Don't worry, they'll reduce in size as they cook). Then cook the squash in a larger pot/ pan with some oil until starting to soften. This takes about 10 minutes.

* Step 2

Peel and crush the garlic cloves. Peel and dice the onion. Add them both to the squash and cook until soft.

* Step 3

Cut the red pepper into large chunks and add to the pan with the other ingredients.

* Step 4

Add the chopped tomatoes, cumin, chilli, paprika, tomato puree, peanut butter, vegetable stock to the squash and vegetable mixture. Cook all of this until a sauce is formed and reduce until you like the thickness, I like a really thick sauce. But be careful not to lose the chunks of vegetables.

* Step 5

Now add the beans and cook for another 10 minutes or so. Add the spinach and wilt it into the mixture.

* Step 6

Then plate up and serve with rice or flat breads.
