Preparation: 15 minutes
Cooking: 1 hour 30 minutes
Total: 1 hour 45 minutes

Serves:

Ingredients

  • 1 butternut squash, peeled, seeded, and cut into cubes
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 cup green lentils
  • 4 cups vegetable broth
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1 tbsp harissa paste
  • Fresh cilantro for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Place the cubed butternut squash on a baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil, and season with salt and pepper. Roast for 30-40 minutes, or until the squash is tender and slightly caramelized.

  2. In a medium-sized pot, bring the vegetable broth to a boil. Add the lentils and reduce the heat to low. Simmer for 20-25 minutes, or until the lentils are cooked but still hold their shape. Drain any excess liquid.

  3. In a separate pan, heat some olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic, cumin, and paprika. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the garlic is fragrant.

  4. Add the cooked lentils to the pan with the garlic and spices. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Stir well to combine and cook for an additional 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

  5. In a small bowl, mix together the Greek yogurt and harissa paste until well combined.

  6. To serve, divide the lentils onto plates, top with roasted squash, and drizzle with the harissa yogurt. Garnish with fresh cilantro.
