Instructions

  • Prepare all your produce - peel, de-seed and dice the butternut squash, core and dice the apple, cut the cauliflower into chunks, dice the onion and mince the garlic.
  • In a large pot, heat 2 tablespoons of oil over medium heat. Once heated, add in the onion, garlic and garam masala - saute until the onions are fragrant and slightly translucent.

  • Serve immediately with side of choice.
