Ingredients
1Butternut squashpeeled, de seeded and cut into 1 inch pieces
2 carrotslarge, peeled, ends trimmed and cut in half length ways
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Add the squash and carrots to a large baking tray and drizzle over one tablespoon of the olive oil. Roast for about 35 minutes or until soft. Remove from oven.
While the vegetables are roasting, heat a large saucepan over medium to high heat on the stove top. Add the remaining olive oil and garlic. Let sizzle for a minute and add the onion. Stir for a minute. Allow the onion to brown for a couple of minutes. Reduce the heat to medium low and add a splash of stock to prevent the onions from sticking. Continue cooking the onions for about 15 minutes or until they have caramelised. Add the curry powder and stir for a minute.
Add the roasted vegetables to the pot and stir for a minute. Add the stock, coconut milk, salt and pepper. Stir and bring to a simmer for about 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and blend in batches.
Return to pot and leave on a low heat for a few minutes.
Serve topped with fresh coriander.
