Bring Thailand vibes to your kitchen with this Thai-inspired butternut squash curry with a chickpeas recipe. The good thing about this recipe is that it is vegan and a perfect addition to your vegan diet meal plan. Additionally, it’s leftover-friendly.

 

In this recipe, there are several ways to quickly prepare this dinner. First and foremost, make sure to prep your butternut squash in advance! Butternut squash requires a lot of time to cut and dice. It is, by far, the most time-consuming step in producing this recipe. If you want to use freshly cooked beans, I also advise preparing your chickpeas in advance. Leafy greens are also present in this recipe. Fear not! use your preferred leafy greens such as zucchini, kale, broccoli, and many more!

 

However, every serving is incredibly warming and satisfying, just like our Smooth Coconut Lentil Curry, Curried Lentil Sweet Potato Bowl, Malaysian Curry; Masak Percik. This Thai-inspired butter squash curry will absolutely become your favorite meal for your vegan diet plan. Even meat eaters will love this oh-so-creamy butter squash curry. I think I will become addicted to Thai cuisine—and you too! In a one-pot, the chickpeas, butternut squash, and pepper are coated with red curry sauce which gives the spicy flavor that is perfect for cozy nights, busy nights, and weeknights.

Frequently Asked Questions

In this recipe, there are two frequently asked questions. Below are the following:

1. Can I omit the coconut milk when making this curry?

    • No, since it requires a high-fat, creamy substance to neutralize everything. If coconut is not your thing you can use homemade cashew cream. But it’s not recommended to use thin plant-based milk.

2. Is there an alternative for butternut squash?

    • Yes, you may use sweet potatoes, kabocha squash, or Red Kuri squash.
