Method

  1. Heat the oil in a saucepan. Tip in the squash and onion, then gently fry for about 5 mins until soft, but not brown. Tip in the curry paste and cook for 1 min more. Stir the coconut cream together with 300ml boiling water, then pour into the pan. Bring to the boil and simmer for 10 mins.
  2. Add the beans to the pan, then cook for about 3-5 mins more until everything is just tender. Serve with warmed naan bread.

Tip

At this time of year, frozen beans will retain far more vitamins and minerals than fresh, air-freighted ones.

    tho I do not like Butternut Squash, and would not make this, thank you for bringing the Thai fish paste to our notice, never used it as am a bit faddy, but the word vegetarian is used loosely by a number of Chefs. Have just made an Aubergine and Mushroom curry for my dinner. Tina

    Substituted butternut squash for baby potatoes and cauliflower. Boiled the potatoes before adding. Had to cook for longer to get the cauliflower cooked through but would par-boil next time. Everyone thought this was very tasty and it was finished off quite easily!

    This recipe didn't work for me - through no fault of it's own! I decided to use Green curry paste as I prefer it, and got the Bart's one as their stuff is usually good but this time it was a disappointment, all heat an no flavour. But I will definitely make this again but with a different green curry paste.

    Used twice as much red curry paste (Tesco) but still bland. Also a bit stodgy - but maybe as I served with rice as I didn't have any naan.

    It was alright, although definitely not anything special. I blended it into a soup as I felt that the butternut squash had an odd texture. It was lovely as a soup with some added cinnamon.
