Butternut squash curry

[NicoleW]

1kg (2lb) of mixed vegetables (like those in the vegetarian chilli) chopped into 1" squares,
* 1 large butternut squash, peeled, deseeded and cut into 1 inch squares,
* 3 large onions,
* 4 cloves garlic,
* 2 x 400ml tins of chopped tomatoes,
* 1 pint vegetable stock,
* 100g (3.5oz) block of creamed coconut,
* 2 teaspoons each of turmeric, cumin, paprika, coriander, chilli powder, curry powder (medium or hot depending on your preference),
*Frylight

Served with cous cous

can someone tell me how many syns this would be and possible per serving as well?

The only thing that would need synned is the coconut which is 8½ syns per 25g so 34 syns for the amount in the recipe. Per serving would depend how many you get from the recipe

The recipe sounds lovely. Could you not use low fat coconut milk instead of creamed coconut to cut down on the syns. I'd be tempted to try it. I'm not sure on the syns but it would be a lot less for 100 g I'm sure.

Not really, coconut milk is really high in syns as well - usually around 22 syns for the light ones. Some people use the coconut yoghurts, kara dairy free coconut milk or coconut essence as a substitute but I prefer to use the real thing
