- 2 large delicata squash (sliced lengthwise and then sliced horizontally into ¼-inch-thick slices.
- 1 large onion (cut into half and then sliced into half moons)
- 8 oz tempeh (cut into ½-inch cubes)
- 3 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- 2 teaspoon curry powder (garam masala is fine here too, it will produce a slightly different flavor)
- 1 teaspoon ground coriander
- ½ teaspoon ground cumin
- ½ teaspoon cayenne
- Juice of 1 lemon
- Salt to taste
- 2 tablespoon cilantro
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit.
Place the squash, tempeh and onions in a large bowl.
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, curry powder, coriander-cumin powder, cayenne, lemon juice and salt.
Drizzle over the squash, tempeh and onions and mix thoroughly to coat evenly with the spices.
Spread the squash mixture on two baking sheets, in an even layer. Try not to crowd or overlap the squash.
Bake for 30-35 minutes until the squash is lightly golden and cooked through.
Remove and sprinkle on the cilantro.
Serve hot.
