Preparation time 10 minutes, Cooking time 30 minutes

Ingredients:
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 large onion, sliced
2 green chillies, deseeded and sliced
50 g (2 oz) fresh root ginger, peeled and grated
4 teaspoons Thai curry paste
2 garlic cloves, crushed
2 x 400 ml (14 fl oz) cans low-fat coconut milk

Method:
Heat the oil in a saucepan, add the onion and fry for 3–4 minutes until softened, then add the chillies, ginger, curry paste and garlic and cook, stirring, for a further 2 minutes.

Pour in the coconut milk and bring to the boil, then add the squash. Reduce the heat and simmer for 12 minutes, then stir in the lentils and simmer for a further 10 minutes until the squash is tender and the lentils have softened.
