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.

Hi, I am making this for my hubby (as I don’t eat meat). It seems the pumpkin has disintegrated into the sauce Is this right? It’s my first time making it. Smells good though. Thanks
Perfect!
Tastes great and so easy to make.
Awesome to hear!
This is really really yummy! Thanks so much for the recipe, I’ve made it twice now and hubby and kids all love it. Love how the pumpkin becomes the sauce so it is well hidden!
It will be a regular on our dinner rotations.
Thanks again 🙂
That is so good to hear Steph! We love the sneaky pumpkin too, and it adds a delicious sweetness!
Is 200ml liquid really sufficient for 700g meat?! I’m going to substitute pumpkin with butternut squash as couldn’t get it. Hope this works too..
The pumpkin completely dissolves to create the sauce. Butternut squash / pumpkin is totally fine. 🙂
Yes- i was impressed how much liquid there was. Beef was till quite tough after 45 mins so have just set it off for another 15mins…hoping that does the trick!
My partner is not a big fan of coconut can I substitute it with anything, thanks so much.
Hi Cheryl! It really adds a bit of texture – could try with some almond meal if you prefer!
This was delicious. I reduced the salt to 1 teaspoon and pepper to 1/2 teaspoon. Will definitely make this again..
Oh that’s great to hear, thanks Cathy!
