This deliciously sweet and mild Beef & Pumpkin Curry has been a regular in The 4 Blades kitchen for about a year, but we have been trying to get it right for you… so here it is! It was featured in our Pumpkin episode on the podcast – Episode 56.
This pumpkin curry Thermomix recipe is a variation of the Beef Rendang curry that was in the old EDC (the book that comes with a Thermomix purchase)… with tweaks to make it Paleo-friendly and Whole30 compliant, and quite a bit easier!
It’s an easy meal that is ready in less than an hour and freezes well. We love it because it gives us a good serve of veggies, especially when served with Mock Rice.
If you like a hotter curry, try adjusting the type or number of chillies used, along with the amount of ground pepper used.

It gives a good serve of veggies, especially if served with cauliflower rice, as the pumpkin actually simmers down to become the sauce.
