Ingredients:

Serving

1 lb butternut squash
2 cups minced onions
3 tbsp minced fresh ginger
1 tbsp minced garlic
1/3 cup butter or 1/3 cup margarine
1 1/2 cups basmati rice, rinsed and drained
1 1/2 tbsp curry powder
1/2 tsp salt
3 cups de-fatted chicken broth
2 tbsp chopped fresh cilantro

Directions:

1. Peel squash and cut in half lengthwise. Remove and discard seeds. Cut squash into 1/2- to 3/4-inch cubes (you should have 2 1/2 cups).
In a 5- to 6-quart pan over medium heat, frequently stir onions, ginger, and garlic in butter until onions are very limp, 10 to 15 minutes.
Add rice and stir often until opaque, about 5 minutes. Add curry powder and stir for 30 seconds longer.
Stir in 1/2 teaspoon salt, squash, and broth. Bring to a boil over high heat; reduce heat, cover, and simmer, stirring occasionally, until rice and squash are tender to bite, 16 to 18 minutes.
Stir in cilantro and salt to taste. Spoon into a bowl.
