Steps to make Warming Butternut Squash Stew:
  1. Peel and dice the squash into medium chunks (think a really big mouthful. Don't worry, they'll reduce in size as they cook). Then cook the squash in a larger pot/ pan with some oil until starting to soften. This takes about 10 minutes.
  2. Peel and crush the garlic cloves. Peel and dice the onion. Add them both to the squash and cook until soft.
  3. Cut the red pepper into large chunks and add to the pan with the other ingredients.
  4. Add the chopped tomatoes, cumin, chilli, paprika, tomato puree, peanut butter, vegetable stock to the squash and vegetable mixture. Cook all of this until a sauce is formed and reduce until you like the thickness, I like a really thick sauce. But be careful not to lose the chunks of vegetables.
  5. Now add the beans and cook for another 10 minutes or so. Add the spinach and wilt it into the mixture.
  6. Then plate up and serve with rice or flat breads.

Once the veggies are tender and aromatic, stir in the squash, broth, salt and pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer, covered, until the squash is tender. Remove from the heat and season to taste with salt and pepper. The addition of warm, wintery spices, a sweet delicious squash and pomegranate, makes this Butternut Squash Beef Stew a real cold weather treat.
