Instructions

Roast the Squash
1

Preheat your oven to 240°C/220°C fan/gas mark 9.

Place the butternut squash onto a large baking tray. Drizzle with oil and season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat, then spread out into a single layer. Roast on the top shelf of your oven until soft and golden, 18-20 mins. Turn halfway through cooking.

Prep
2

While the butternut squash roasts, grate the Cheddar cheese.

Halve, peel and thinly slice the red onion. Trim the spring onion and thinly slice on an angle.

Cook the Mince
3

When the squash has 10 mins remaining, heat a large frying pan on medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil.

Once hot, add the beef mince and red onion and cook until the mince is starting to brown and onion starting to soften, 3-4 mins. Use a spoon to break the mince up as it cooks. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw mince. 

Add the Flavour
4

Add the chopped tomatoes, beef stock paste, chipotle paste and water (see pantry). Stir to combine and simmer until thickened, 3-5 mins. Season with salt and pepper. IMPORTANT: The mince is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.

Add the Butternut Squash
5

Once cooked, stir the butternut squash through the chilli.

Serve
6

Serve the chipotle beef and butternut squash chilli in bowls.

Top with the spring onion and cheese.

Review summary

Updated on Feb 2026
  • Flavour: Rich and hearty flavours with a lovely butternut squash addition. Some found it could use more spice.
  • Ease of prep: Quick and easy to prepare, with roasted butternut squash adding a delicious twist to the chilli.
  • Suggestions: Consider adding sour cream and chive for extra flavour. Reduce water to about 50 ml for a thicker consistency.
  • Portions: Some found it small on its own; try adding peas or roasted potatoes as sides for a heartier meal.
