Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • ¼ cup diced onion
  • 2 cups grated butternut squash, packed
  • 1 teaspoon curry powder
  • ½ teaspoon ground cumin
  • ½ teaspoon sea salt
  • ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 large egg, beaten
  • ¼ cup garbanzo-fava bean flour (such as Bob's Red Mill®)
  • 3 tablespoons corn flour (such as Bob's Red Mill®)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • ¼ cup sour cream for garnish (Optional)

Directions

Step 1
Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Stir in onion; cook and stir until onion is softened, about 5 minutes. Set aside to cool.
