Ingredients
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 red onion
- 2-3 cloves of garlic
- 1-inch ginger, grated
- 2 tbsp curry powder
- 2 cups kale, washed and roughly chopped
- 1 cup butternut squash, chopped
- ¾ cup green lentils
- 2½ cup water or vegetable stock
- 1 x 400ml tin of coconut milk
- 1/3 cup sundried tomatoes
- Toppings: 1 handful coriander, toasted coconut, pumpkin seeds
- Salt & pepper, to taste
Method
Preheat oven to 200c.
Add 1 tbsp olive oil to a pan and sauté onion until tender. Add garlic, ginger, curry powder and lentils and sauté for a further minute. Add water and bring to the boil. Then reduce heat to a light simmer, cover and cook for 20 minutes, until the lentils are softened, but still with a bite (al dente).
While the lentils are cooking, peel and dice butternut squash and place on a roasting dish with 1 tbsp olive oil, salt and pepper. Roast for about 15-20 minutes or until al dente. Leave the oven on.
Once the lentils are cooked, turn off the heat and stir in coconut milk and kale. Allow the kale to soften for 1-2 minutes and then stir in the butternut squash.
Place mixture into the baking dish used for roasting your squash and bake for 15mins.
This was so informative, thank you for sharing! It's important to educate people about how one can get all the required minerals and nutrients from a healthy, plant-based diet. It's a common misconception that a vegan diet leads to malnutrition. Eating a balanced diet with a wide variety of fruit, vegetables, pulses, nuts, whole grains and fermented foods is the best way to nourish your body. Eat the rainbow!

Ella this recipe is looks lovely thanks for sharing greetings from dublin ireland Patricia obrien
Oh Ella I just love you and your channel! Thank you so much for sharing all your recipes and information. Best of luck with the new baby, becoming a parent is the best most exciting adventure you'll ever take!
Great advice presented in such a simple way. Thanks
Hi Ella thank you so much for this informative video!!!
Just a small tip for removing skin off of ginger is to just scrape it off whether with a spoon or just the same knife you're cutting up with. You'll notice you save quite a lot of the ginger (:
This looks so delicious! Ella, you look so beautiful and healthy. Congrats on your pregnancy. :-)
I love this and all of the information! Thank you both!
This is my absolute favourite recipe!
Amazing looking dish, really great info and what a gorgeous kimono!! 💕
Thanks for the idea what to cook today! And I just love Tracys kimono/jacket!
Me too
This looks so nice. I will be having a go at making this one
Amazing content and delightful recipe ❤️🙌🏻✨🌸
Very informative, loved this video. You are glowing Ella! 💜
yes more videos!
Ella how much is 2 half cups of water and do you use all the can of coconut milk,do you mix the liquid with the thick milk mixture greetings from dublin ireland Patricia obrien
Ella could you use tined lentils or do you recommend using the ones you cook with this recipe, and do you think I should use the low fat coconut milk or full fat, looks delicious thanks for the recipe just subcribed greetings from Dublin Ireland 🇮🇪 Patricia obrien
look at my two sisters who just made food but feel harmful, I look enthusiastic and the way to make their food looks good and delicious
Could you please give oil-free alternatives wither the recipes too? I have a tough time with oil in my foods; it really upsets my stomach and digestive process in general. Thanks! 😁
You can kust water sautee the onions, and instead of roasting the squash add it when you add the lentils. You may need a bit more water but it will cook down and get soft similiar to a potato.
Just omit the oil. I water saute, and sometimes I use veggie broth. As for the roasting, just roast as usual. You do not need oil to roast veggies. I do it all the time.
If you can't eat oil I would use soy sauce to saute the broccoli as will be much yummier
Love love that too. Anyone know where that stripe top is from that Ella has on?
Do you think you could make this as a lasagna dish? I’m thinking egg free spinach lasagna and taking just the solid part of coconut milk to keep it less liquid, right? x
Considering supplements, I can also recommend "omega3-Loges-vegan" and "floradix-plus-B12-vegan". Calcium should better be taken from natural sources such als mineral water and food. And low fat milk products for those who are not strictly vegan. 😉
Floradix has great products, I really love them, it feels so natural
Can I use sweet potatoes instead of butternut squash
Sure!
Yes I have! Really yummy!
😍😍
You recipe is not a copy paste post?
Sad day
Amazing advice. Please somebody help this lady cut her fringe so she can see properly
... spinach is not a "good or high source for iron"... there are much better sources!
what a load of bollocks. Let's all take synthetic pills to be healthy
Excellent recipe apart from the oil. There's research that shows that oils aren't good for your health. They increase your chances of heart disease. Vege source has a video with a talk by Dr. McDougall that discuss this.
Good point. Dr Fuhrmann talks about this in his books on Nutritarianism.
Ella is the only one cutting/preparing the meal - this nutritionist might be knowledgeable but she didn't help in the the food prep!
