1 Tbsp of ginger root, minced
3 Tbsp red curry paste
½ tsp ground cinnamon

Salt & pepper to taste
Instructions
Heat your oil over medium-high heat in a large pot, then add the onion and sauté for 5 minutes.
Add the ginger, garlic, curry paste, and remaining spices to your pot. Stir and continue to heat your mixture until you can smell the fragrances of the spices, next you will add in the butternut squash and the water.
Let the pot come to a boil and then allow it to simmer for about 15-20 minutes, or until the squash is tender to a fork.
Transfer the ingredients from your pot into a blender.
Add beans, sriracha, and coconut milk. Blend until smooth and creamy.
