Making it meaty or Indian

    Not as good as thought it would be given the other comments, maybe it was the paste I used (Barts)

    I didn't have Thai curry paste so just used regular curry powder and it was great. I'll definitely be making this again.

    Didn't use the curry paste and instead used more herbs and omitted the coconut milk and used more stock with flour to thicken. Was nomalicious

    I found it ok, a bit bland perhaps. Next time I would add more curry paste and some ginger.

    this is a fantastic recipe; although when we made this we also made a few more discoveries. Our local supermarket didnt have thai red curry paste, it only had thai green curry paste so we used a sachet of that instead, and we also had a brocolli that needed using up so we threw that in, i would thoroughly recommend adding in a vegetable such as brocolli as it soaks up the flavours and gives a wonderful taste when you bite into it. Just prior to serving, we added a little extra coconut milk to the wok and it didnt change anything. The pineapples really do taste great in this curry and really compliments the butternut squash wonderfully, and i was the one that needed convincing. And one final piece of advice, don't bother peeling the butternut squash, it tastes wonderful with the skin on!

    I first made this curry when we had friends over where one was veggie and the rest of us were carnivores. I didn't have time to cook 2 dishes so put in some raw king prawns after I had served the vegetarian version. Less than a minute later it was all ready and DIVINE! Have cooked it loads since - as it comes, with chicken and with prawns.

    This is so easy to prepare and tastes delicious. However it was a bit mild for me so I added more chilli.

    This curry is amazing!! I normally cool Indian curry's, and i wanted to try something different. It's simple to make, the hardest thing to do is to peel and cut the squash. I added more of the curry paste as i like quite a hot curry. And i even think i'll add more in next time, as the pineapple really acts well to cool down the spice. I will be cooking this treat again and again.

    I thought this was very tasty and went well with rice. The coconut milk made a big difference as did the pineapple.
