Kabocha is my favorite squash/pumpkin. Serve this as a vegetarian main dish with rice or add some meat to it. It can also be a great side dish to replace your potatoes when eating red meat. Me and hubby like it, not really the kids.

Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil

  • 3 cups cubed kabocha (Japanese winter squash)

  • 1 yellow onion, sliced

  • ½ (14 ounce) can coconut milk

  • 1 tablespoon fish sauce

  • 1 tablespoon grated ginger

  • 1 teaspoon curry powder

  • 1 pinch brown sugar, or to taste

  • salt to taste

Directions

  1. Heat sesame oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add kabocha and onion; cook and stir until tender and onion is translucent, about 10 minutes. Stir in coconut milk, fish sauce, ginger, and curry powder. Bring to a simmer; cook until flavors combine, about 5 minutes. Season with brown sugar and salt.

Cook's Notes:

You can add the browned meat of your choice with the coconut milk.

You can eat it as a vegetarian or vegan main dish if you replace the fish sauce with 3 tablespoons soy sauce.
