Anyone got recent copies of The Week to hand?

[MyEye]

The recipes in there are usually not my thang, but in the last issue there was a lovely-sounding recipe for pumpkin/butternut curry. Now DH has put it out for recycling. Can anyone help?

I have a lovely recipe for 'indian spiced squash' - which, while not a curry, (it's a lot drier )is absolutely scrummy and served with rice - or just eaten on its own. It's a sophie bareham i think, i can dig it out if you want.

Is 'the week' online? Maybe it's in their archive?

No, the mag isn't online.... I'd love to see your recipe if you have the time.

OK So; Indian Spiced Squash.

2-2.5 lb squash (butternut/pumpkin etc)
half a star anise.
1/4 tsp turmeric
1 bay leaf
1 tsp sugar
1/2 tsp each Cumin and Ground Coriander
2 oz butter
1 small onion chopped
1 garlicclove chopped
1 inch fresh ginger
1-2 chillis
2 tbsp oil

peel pumpkin and cut into 1 inch cubes. Place in a pan with star anise, turmeric,bay leaf, sugar and salt. Add 1/4 pint water and bring to the boil. Simmer until tender. Do not drain.
Heat butter, add onion and fry gently until golden. Raise heat and frizzle cumin and coriander for 20 secs, add garlic, ginger and chilli and cook 1 minute.
Tranfer pumpkin to a serving dish mashing slightly and pour over sizzling butter, stirring to streak it in as you go.

A lot of ingrediants but I improvise with groiund ginger/dried chillis or leave out if I haven;t got something. I also add a bit more butter than this, but it's up to you.

oh that looks fab. How can I resist 'sizzling butter'? Many thanks.
