Curry coconut squash



This can be a very spicy or very mellow dish, depending on how you fix it. The proportion I fix will feed 3-4 people.

Ingredients:
  • 2 medium sized or 1 large squash
  • 1 can of coconut milk
  • Garlic salt
  • Yellow curry powder
  • Black pepper
Directions:
  1. Rinse and cut up your squash. (I prefer to make them not too large, because it cuts down on cooking time a little)
  2. In a good sized sauce pan, empty the can of coconut milk.
  3. Add curry powder. (***Important*** - If you eat curry, then you can probably gauge how spicy you prefer this to be. If you have not eaten much curry, err on the side of adding just a little and then increasing the dosage after you've given it a little taste. I prefer a good spoonful to mine, but it also depends on what i'm serving with it and how it will compliment the meal.)
  4. Add a dash of garlic salt and a dash of black pepper.
  5. Add squash.
  6. Turn up to a low/medium heat and put a lid on your pot.
  7. Check and stir periodically until the squash is soft and your kitchen has a wonderful Indian smell.
  8. Serve warm and don't waste the sauce.
Examples:


I am serving this dish tonight with garlic chicken and pineapple/red onion rice. I'll probably make it more on the spicy side, since the other dishes are mild in flavor and I like for my food to give me the sniffles.
