Squash Goulash

Ingredients (use vegan versions):

    1/4 cup medium grain rice
    1/2 acorn squash
    1 small red potato
    1 small carrot
    1/4 cup chopped onion
    1 tablespoon tomato paste
    1 small clove garlic, minced
    1 bay leaf
    1/2 teaspoon each : coriander, paprika,
    1/4 teaspoon each : tumeric, cayenne pepper
    dash cardamom

Directions:

Saute onion, rice, and all spices except garlic and bay leaf in a small amount of oil until rice sizzles.  Add 1 cup water, tomato paste, bat leaf and garlic.  Simmer for 15 minutes while you prepare vegetables.  Scrape out squash, then peel and chop all vegetables into bite-sized chunks.  Add to rice mixture along with an additional 3/4 cup water.  Simmer over low heat for about ten minutes, or until vegetables are soft.   A note about the squash: the ridges on acorn squash make it difficult to peel; I find it easiest to chop the squash first and then peel the pieces.

Serves: 2

Preparation time: 30-40 min
