Post by: 976bar on October 31, 2013, 08:37 PM
We had great fun again this year for Halloween Curries at the UNI :)

Garlic Chilli Chicken Masala
Chicken Tikka Masala
Veggie Ceylon

All served out of Giant Pumpkins :)

Along with a homemade Mulligatawny Soup, various chutneys, poppadaoms, naan breads etc etc...

We had great fun carving the pumpkins too over the past 2 days :)

Hi Goncalo,

Here you go. This can be made with either Squash or Pumpkin.

Ingredients
Makes 5 cups
2 cups vegetable broth (500ml)
2 cups peeled butternut squash chunks (500ml)
1 red bell pepper, chopped
1 (15-oz) can white beans, drained
1 small sweet onion, peeled and chopped
1 tbsp hot curry powder
1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil

Directions
Heat the olive oil in a medium pot,  add the onions and cook until soft, stir in the curry powder and cook, stirring until fragrant (about one minute). Add the broth, the squash, beans and pepper. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to a simmer and cook for 10-15 minutes until the vegetables are soft. Puree with either an immersion blender or in batches in a blender, being careful not to overfill the blender.
