Pumpkin and Adzuki Bean Masala Curry

January 12, 2016 By Hana 4 Comments

Pumpkin and Adzuki Bean Masala Curry

Sometimes I need a good hearty bowl of curry, like quite often actually and I make a big pot once a week enough for few meals. Unfortunate to my husband and my son who have to patiently eat them, even though they are not the biggest fans. This curry is inspired by my Pumpkin and Adzuki Bean Dip, which I love. It’s hearty and wholesome with fresh pumpkin, adzuki beans, coconut milk and garam masala seasoning. Utterly perfect for this time of a year.

Pumpkin and Adzuki Bean Masala Curry

I tend to spice my curries gently, I don’t often use chilies, but do feel free to add them in if you like a bit more heat. I’ve used traditional pumpkin in this recipe, but any squash will be great. If you prefer do soak and cook your own adzuki beans, it will taste even better. For the convenience I’ve just used canned ones from Biona in this recipe. You could also add in some leafy greens towards the end like spinach or kale for even more goodness. Serve on it’s own or with your favourite grain. Enjoy!

    Thanks for posting this tasty recipe.

    I cut the pumpkin into cubes, sprayed with oil, rolled in savoury yeast flakes and then roasted.

Happy New Year beautiful! ✨ I’m feeling that Happy New Year beautiful! ✨

I’m feeling that this is the year we all need to ease into. Use this sacred pause we’re in until the 5th of January to really go within and listen deeply to what are you being called to birth this year. Forget creating goals from your ego. What are those whispers of your soul calling you to? Is it time to take the lead in your life? ✨

If this year is a continuation of 2020 we will need more conscious embodied leaders taking charge to create the change our planet needs. It’s us who create the future. ✨

Now that many of us are awake we need conscious women and men to walk together hand in hand! We’ve got this! 

✨🕊✨

Sending so much Love Hana xx

What dessert are you making this year? To be honest I’ve got my gingerbread cookies stored in fridge, the leftover chocolate cranberry orange cake in freezer so I’m quite sorted! But still pondering whether to make the gingerbread cheesecake. And just have written a new recipe for a lentil nut roast which I’m really looking forward to making on Christmas Day. 🎄
