Decolonized Anishinaabe Three Sisters Stew

Preparation of the Stew 1. In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent. Add the minced garlic, smoked paprika, and ground cumin, and cook for another minute, until fragrant. 2. Add the cubed butternut squash, cooked black beans, and corn kernels to the pot. Pour in the vegetable broth and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and let the stew simmer for 20-25 minutes, or until the squash is tender. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Preparation of the Frybread 1. In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Slowly add the warm water and mix until a soft dough forms. 2. On a floured surface, divide the dough into equal portions and shape into discs. Heat the oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat. Fry the bread until golden brown on both sides. Drain on paper towels.
