Prep Time 15 minutes

Cooking Time 30 minutes

Ingredients

2 fresh chillies, chopped
6 cloves garlic, finely chopped
2 T olive oil
500 g butternut, diced

Preheat the oven to 180°C.
In a saucepan over a medium heat, gently fry the chilli and garlic in the olive oil until fragrant and slightly softened.
Add the butternut and sweet potato and fry for a further 5 minutes. Add the coconut milk, nutmeg and stock and leave to simmer for 10 to 15 minutes.
Spoon the butternut and sweet potato broth into separate ovenproof bowls and season to taste.
