The first Pinterest pin challenge I picked was a dinner, Chickpea and Butternut Squash Curry to be exact. We eat a lot of vegetarian dishes in our household and we like Indian food, so this was right up our alley.
I followed the recipe slightly. I used pre-cut butternut squash, frozen peas, and frozen chickpeas that I had cooked earlier. I used a Patak Mild Curry Paste, which is different from the recipe, but it was what I had and I think I could have added more. The recipe calls for 2 tablespoons, and I added that plus a little bit but flavor was still a little bland for me. Though if I was honest, my nose was a little stuffy, so maybe it was spicier than I thought and I just couldn't taste it. I served it with rice and naan bread. I liked the recipe and will make again, but will use a different Curry Paste, as there are numerous options, maybe I will get brave and try making my own.
