Directions

1

Start by making the spice paste. Dry-toast the cumin & coriander seeds in a small frying pan over a medium heat just for 1-2 minutes, or until fragrant. Grind in a pestle and mortar.

2

Peel and chunky chop the onions, then combine all ingredients for the spice paste, including the ground cumin and coriander, in a nutribullet or small jug blender and whizz until smooth. If you need to add a splash of water to enable it to blend, add it a tablespoon at a time using as little as possible.

3

Heat 2 tbsp of oil in a large heavy-bottom saucepan over a medium heat, then fry off the spice paste for 10-12 minutes, stirring often until it has darkened slightly and appears much drier. The spice mix may stick so keep an eye on the pan as you prep the other ingredients.

4

Halve the squash and discard the seeds then chop into even sized chunks roughly 1 cm by 3 cm, or thereabouts. Wash your greens and shred into 1 cm thick ribbons.

5

After 10-12 minutes add the tomato puree, prepped squash, beans, tinned tomatoes, peanut butter, 500 ml of water and 1 teaspoon of flakey sea salt. Stir things well and bring to a simmer over a gentle heat; once simmering set a time for 30 mins and pop on the lid.

6

Stir the stew halfway through cooking. After 30 minutes add the shredded chard, spinach or kale, stir, and continue cooking your stew for 5 minutes just to wilt the greens.

7

Serve in warmed bowls, perhaps with some brown rice, topped with chilli flakes, a squeeze of lime, and some toasted, salted peanuts.
