Instructions
 

  • Melt the coconut oil in a wide-bottomed saucepan set over a medium heat. Add the onion and cook for 2 minutes before adding the squash. Place a lid on the pan and cook for 5 minutes.
  • While this is cooking, put the coconut milk and peanut butter in a smoothie maker or small blender and blitz until no lumps are visible.
  • Now back to the saucepan. The squash will have softened but still have a bit of bite, which is perfect. Add the chickpeas, dried fruit, spices and some salt and pepper.
  • Turn up the heat to high and cook for 2 minutes, stirring continuously. Add the water and let it boil for 2 minutes more before removing the pan from the heat.
  • Once the curry stops bubbling, pour in the coconut and peanut mixture and keep stirring until it thickens up slightly.
  • Ladle into bowls, garnish with the chopped fresh coriander and serve with the rice and a lime wedge on the side.
