Preparation:
Step one: Saute the onions in olive oil on medium heat in a deep-sided cooking pot until softened. Add the garlic and ginger to the onions, sauteing for a further 5-10 minutes, until softened and caramelized.
Step two: Add tomato paste, red curry paste, and dry spices. Stir until well combined. Add the winter squash and broth to the mixture, saute under medium heat for 5 minutes. Turn heat down so curry simmers.
Step three: Once squash is tender (~10min) add the coconut milk, peanut butter, and garbanzo beans. Simmer for a further 5 minutes. Turn off heat and add the juice of 1 lime. Stir well.
Step four: Garnish with a squeeze of lime juice and 1 seed pad of kale microgreens before serving. Enjoy!
