Spiced Sweet Potato Curry with Peas and Coconut Milk
Introduction from Rukmini Iyer
This curry is a real crowd-pleaser, with just a little bit of spice for flavour, and plenty of sweetness from the potatoes and peas. If your family likes mushrooms, consider adding a packet of quartered ordinary mushrooms for an added vegetable. A lovely, warming dish.
Ingredients
Method
Preheat the oven to 210°C fan/230°C/gas 8. Put everything into the roasting tin, except the coconut milk, water, peas and lentils. Mix, then roast for 5 minutes. Add the coconut milk, water, peas and lentils, stir well and cook for a further 25 minutes, until the potatoes are cooked through.
Be careful opening the oven, as this dish will release quite a lot of steam. Once cooked, taste and adjust with lime juice and salt as needed, scatter over the fresh coriander and serve hot with rice or flatbreads.
CHANGE IT UP: For adults, add 1 teaspoon of chilli powder when you roast the sweet potatoes, or finely chopped fresh red chilli at the end.
