Instructions

Step 1
Heat a little oil or butter in a pan and fry the onion until golden. Add the cubed squash and cook for 3–5 minutes.
Step 2
Stir in the garlic paste, then add the lentils, garam masala, and ground fenugreek. Mix everything well.
Step 3
Pour in the coconut milk, vegetable stock, ginger paste, and half the water. Give it a good stir, bring to the boil, then cover and let it simmer for about 10 minutes.
