Braised Butternut Curry 🧡 Easy One-Pot Comfort
This braised butternut curry is made with simple pantry spices and just a few fresh ingredients — soft, fragrant, and perfect with warm roti.
Recipe:
1 medium–large butternut squash, cut into large cubes
1 onion, sliced
Curry leaves
Fresh thyme
1 cinnamon stick
1 tsp chili flakes
1 tsp mustard seeds
1 tsp salt
Ground cinnamon (to finish)
2–3 tbsp oil
Method:
Heat oil in a pot. Add 1 tsp mustard seeds, onion, 1 tsp chili flakes, curry leaves, and the cinnamon stick all at once. Sauté until fragrant and slightly softened. Add the butternut and 1 tsp salt, mixing well so everything is coated in the aromatics. Cover and cook on low, stirring occasionally, until soft but still holding its shape. Finish with fresh thyme and a light sprinkle of ground cinnamon.
Serve with another veg curry and fresh roti for the ultimate combo.
