A Southeast Asian twist on this comforting classic using our Lemongrass Turmeric Paste. Top with toasted unsweetened coconut flakes for added texture and a fancier touch!​

1/2 Tbsp rice bran oil 2 Tbsp Mekhala All-Natural Lemongrass Turmeric Paste
Himalayan Pink Salt

Method:
1. Add oil to a large pot over medium heat. Add Mekhala All-Natural Lemongrass Turmeric Paste and gently saute until fragrant.
2. Add squash and a pinch of Himalayan Pink Salt. Cook, stirring, for 2-5 minutes, until squash begins to brown.
