Ingredients
2 cups pumpkin, cubed
1 medium sweet potato, peeled and cubed
1 onion, chopped
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated
1 tablespoon olive oil or coconut oil
1 tablespoon curry powder
½ teaspoon turmeric
½ teaspoon cumin
Pinch of cayenne pepper (optional)
1 can (14 oz) coconut milk
1 cup vegetable broth
Salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Heat oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add chopped onion and cook for 3–4 minutes until soft.
- Stir in garlic and ginger, cooking for another minute. Add curry powder, turmeric, cumin, and cayenne; toast for 30 seconds.
- Stir in pumpkin and sweet potato to coat in spices; cook 2–3 minutes.
- Pour in coconut milk and vegetable broth. Simmer covered for 20–25 minutes, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are tender.

Notes
For extra flavor, roast the pumpkin before adding it to the curry.
Use full-fat coconut milk for a creamier texture.
Add spinach at the end for extra nutrients and color.
Adjust the spice level by adding more cayenne or chili oil.
Add chickpeas or tofu for extra protein.
