1 Ingredients

Qty Item
1 tbsp Coconut Oil
1 medium Yellow Onion, diced
3 cloves Garlic, minced
1 tbsp Fresh Ginger, grated
2 medium Sweet Potato, cubed
1 can (15oz) Canned Chickpeas, drained
2 tbsp Yellow Curry Powder
1/2 tsp Turmeric
1 can (14oz) Full-Fat Coconut Milk
1 cup Vegetable Broth
2 cups Fresh Spinach
1 tbsp Lime Juice

2 Instructions

1

Heat coconut oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add diced onion and sauté for 5 minutes until translucent.

2

Stir in minced garlic and grated ginger, cooking for 1 minute until fragrant.

3

Add the cubed sweet potatoes, curry powder, and turmeric. Stir well to coat the potatoes in the spices.

4

Pour in the coconut milk and vegetable broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the sweet potatoes are fork-tender.

5

Stir in the drained chickpeas and fresh spinach. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the spinach is wilted and the chickpeas are heated through.

6

Remove from heat and stir in the lime juice. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve warm over rice.


💡 Tips & Tricks

  • ·

    Cut sweet potatoes into uniform 1/2-inch cubes to ensure they cook evenly.

  • ·

    For a creamier texture, mash a few of the sweet potato chunks against the side of the pot during the final simmer.

  • ·

    Add a splash of maple syrup if you prefer a slightly sweeter curry profile.

  • ·

    Top with fresh cilantro and crushed peanuts for added texture and brightness.
