This Thai-inspired One Pot Pumpkin Yellow Curry is a vibrant and delicious dish ready to enjoy in just 30 minutes. Creamy, spicy, and packed with curry flavors, this dish uses only vegan-friendly ingredients. Serve with brown rice to make an easy hearty dish.

To make this pumpkin curry recipe, you need simple ingredients, and the process is pretty effortless. Cook the shallots, ginger, garlic, and red chili. Then add in the bell pepper and curry paste. I like to use Thai yellow curry paste to flavor this pumpkin curry because it adds just the right amount of heat, saltiness, and spice. Next, add in the pumpkin cubes. Cook the pumpkin without any liquid for a few minutes to infuse the flavors. Then stir in the coconut milk, sugar, turmeric, a splash of coconut aminos and a pinch of salt. Simmer on low for 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, to soften the pumpkin. Finally, add the broccoli, lemon juice, and cashews. Simmer for another 3-4 minutes. Optional: Blend half of the curry sauce and half of the pumpkin until creamy and smooth for a thicker and creamier texture. For serving, ladle the hot curry over steamed rice and sprinkle with chopped cilantro or basil. Enjoy!
