How to cook deliciously - Moroccan Squash, Chickpea, and Spinach Stew

1. Stage

Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat; stir in onion. Cook and stir until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes. Add ginger, paprika, cinnamon, turmeric, pepper, and red pepper flakes. Cook, stirring well to ensure the spices don't stick and burn, for 2 minutes.

Add butternut squash, chickpeas, tomatoes, vegetable stock, raisins, and honey. Simmer until squash starts to break down, about 20 minutes.

3. Stage

While the soup is cooking, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spread flaked almonds onto a baking sheet.

4. Stage

Toast nuts in the preheated oven, shaking the pan frequently, until they start to turn golden brown and become fragrant, 3 to 5 minutes.

5. Stage

Stir spinach and cilantro into the soup; cook until spinach is wilted, about 2 minutes. Ladle into bowls and garnish with toasted almonds.
