Spiced Butternut Squash & Red Lentil Curry

Last update date: February 24, 2012

Recipe Name: Spiced Butternut Squash & Red Lentil Curry Ingredients: Canola Oil 2 tablespoon;Onion 1.5 cup;Garlic, big clove 2 piece;Ginger 1 tablespoon;Garam Masala 2 teaspoon;Butternut Squash 20 ounces;Red Lentils 1 cup;Ripe Tomato 1 cup;Salt 1.5 teaspoon;Water 4 cup;Coconut Milk 14 ounces;Lime 5 wedges;Cilantro 0 as required; Steps: Heat the canola oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the onion, garlic, ginger, and garam masala. Cook while stirring often until the onion starts to soften, approximately 2 to 3 minutes. Add the butternut squash, red lentils, tomato, and salt. Stir for 1 minute. Pour in the water, cover the pot, and bring it to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat to maintain a lively simmer. Cook covered, stirring occasionally, until the squash is tender and the lentils are mostly broken down, which takes about 20 minutes. Stir in the coconut milk and simmer until heated through, approximately 1 minute. Serve the curry with lime wedges and garnish with cilantro, if desired. Note: Precut butternut squash is usually available in packages of 20 ounces, either as large cubes or smaller diced squash. If you can only find smaller cubes, you'll need two 16-ounce packages to reach a total of 5 cups of squash. In that case, reduce the roasting time by 5 to 10 minutes. Alternatively, you can prepare your own squash cubes by peeling and seeding a whole butternut squash and cutting it into 1- to 2-inch pieces. ? -- These are recipe details of a recipe in my database. i need you to create a description for this recipe that will describe it aptly based on its name, ingredient list, and cooking steps.
