    I swapped the oil for 1tbsp of water and the onions worked just as well. super tasty recipe! I did find that the squash needed a tad more water and more cooking time though.

    Really liked this. Skinned the tomatoes because I don't like tough bits of skin in my sauce (I know- I'm fussy!) and added chunks of red peppers following others' suggestions. Went down well even with my husband who usually feels hard done by after a flesh free meal!

    Lovely recipe, I'm terrible at weighing and just use the recipe as a guide / inspiration which has its plus and minus points. Didn't weigh the butternut squash just added the lot, additionally I added a green and red pepper 3/4 packet green beans chopped in 3 and a tin of chickpeas for protein and a tin chopped tomatoes in addition to the fresh. It tasted lovely. Downside I don't think I added enough liquid for the amount of stuff I put in as it took forever for the butternut to cook and ended up scooping some out and zapping in the microwave to cook quickly as husband and baba 10 1/2 months were hungry. Served with red rice. And added some creme freche to the baby's portion

    Just made this again, this time I kept the squash a week before using which improved the taste. Now gets a big five from me.

    Thoroughly enjoyed this simple recipe. Not a timid curry, it made loads. We added quorn pieces we had left over from the roast, will make again. Ate with naan bread and mango chutney. Husband suggested an omelette under the bed of rice next time. Surprisingly my daughter (9) also ate it but said it was as 'spicy' as she would eat a curry.
