Method

  1. Heat oven to 190C/fan 170C/gas 5. Toss half the onions in 1 tbsp oil, then roast for 15-20 mins, until they are crisp and golden.
  2. Meanwhile, fry the remaining onion in the oil until lightly golden. Add the garlic and spices; cook for 1 min. Add the pumpkin, stir in the tomato purée and 425ml boiling water, then return to the boil. Simmer, covered, for 15 mins, then stir in the beans. Cook for a further 5 mins.
  3. Put the spinach in a colander and pour over a kettle of boiling water until it is wilted. Press with a wooden spoon to remove excess water, then roughly chop. Stir into the curry, then warm through. Serve scattered with the crisp roasted onions.

    Will definately be doing this one again, It is so easy to do and tasted great. I would recommend doing this with the curried flatbread as the two went really well together. The portion size was a little bit on the large side but thats was not a problem as we had it for lunch the next day.

    I really wonder: is the dish a meal for only two? I loved the taste, but it was too much.

    The sauce was too watery but the ingredients were good. If made again, I would put less water.

    This was a lovely recipe that I will definitely be cooking again. I couldn't get hold of any black beans so I used red kidney beans instead.

    It was much milder than I was expecting. Definitely need less water for the recipe - it also tasted better the second day, with the flavours all soaking in and some more cayenne pepper thrown in.

    Good recipe for a quick after work supper. Didn't bother with the oven cooked onion & just as tasty with pan fried onions! Less water used as above.

    This recipie was very watery and I found to be tasteless; I am so unimpressed that I won't even try to improve it!
