Follow these simple steps to create your Butternut Squash Curry with Chickpeas:
1. Prepare Ingredients: Start by peeling and dicing the butternut squash. Rinse and drain the chickpeas.
2. Sauté Aromatics: In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and cook until translucent, about 5 minutes.
3. Add Garlic and Ginger: Stir in the minced garlic and grated ginger. Cook for another minute until fragrant.
4. Spice It Up: Add the curry powder, ground cumin, and ground coriander. Stir well to coat the onions and cook for 1-2 minutes.

6. Pour in Coconut Milk and Broth: Add the coconut milk and vegetable broth to the pot. Stir to combine.
7. Simmer: Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover and let it simmer for about 20 minutes, or until the squash is tender.
8. Incorporate Chickpeas: Stir in the drained chickpeas and cook for an additional 5 minutes until heated through.
9. Season: Taste and add salt and pepper as desired. Adjust the seasoning according to your preference.
