Ingredients
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 medium onion, finely diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon grated ginger
1 teaspoon red curry paste (adjust to taste)
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon ground turmeric
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
1/4 cup smooth peanut butter
1 (13.5 oz) can unsweetened coconut milk
1 cup vegetable broth
2 large sweet potatoes, peeled and diced
1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro
Salt and pepper to taste
Optional toppings: chopped peanuts, cooked rice, lime wedges
Directions
- Step 1: Sauté the Aromatics
Heat oil in a large pot or a Dutch oven over medium heat. Add onion, finely chopped, and cook for five minutes until it is softened and translucent.
Add garlic and ginger while heating for about a minute. - Step 2: Add Spices and Peanut Butter
Add red curry paste, cumin, turmeric, and chili powder. Cook for 1 minute, constantly stirring to help release flavours. Incorporate peanut butter,
cook for another minute until well-mixed together. - Step 3: Simmer the Curry
Add the coconut milk and vegetable stock, scraping all the bottom crust. Put sweet potatoes to a dice and turn the whole mixture to simmer,
turn the heat to high, and then down to low. Simmer, cover, and cook for 15 to 20 minutes, until sweet potatoes become tender. - Step 4: Serve and Delight!
Finally add chopped cilantro and season to taste with salt and pepper. Heat the curry and serve it over cooked rice, adding chopped peanuts and lime wedges to taste.
Tips:
- For a thicker curry, mash some cooked sweet potatoes before stirring back into the pot.
- For lighter version use vegetable broth instead of coconut milk.
- For enhancing the flavor and nutrients, use vegetables like carrots, bell peppers, and spinach.
- If necessary, use substitute curry powder and garam masala instead of red curry paste.
