  • 1 Tbs olive oil
  • 2 Tbs red curry paste (or 1 Tbs curry powder)
  • 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper or thai chili flakes

  • 1/2 Tbs fresh ginger, peeled & minced
  • 1/2 lime, squeeze juice

  • 2-3 large sweet potatoes, cubes (peel optional)
  • 1/2 yellow onion, diced

*Lite coconut milk is a low-fat alternative. You may also substitute for unsweetened, unflavored soy or nut milk, cow’s milk (for non-vegan), or you may dilute regular coconut milk with water (i.e. 2/3 cup coconut milk + 1/3 cup water for a recipe that calls for 1 cup)

Directions

  1. Begin by preparing your vegetables.
  2. Then, in a large skillet heat 1 Tbs olive oil on high heat.
  3. Next, sauté the onion, garlic, and ginger together for 2-3 minutes or until fragrant.
  4. Then, add the curry paste or powder and seasoning. Add a dash of salt and black pepper.
  5. Add in the sweet potatoes and toss for 2 minutes.
  6. Then, add the lime juice, coconut milk (or substitute) and the vegetable stock.
  7. Stir together well and bring the mixture to a boil. Once boiling, reduce heat to low, cover the pan, and allow it to simmer for 20-30 minutes or until sweet potatoes are soft.
  8. Once the sweet potatoes are cooked, remove the lid and add in the spinach. Allow it to wilt over 1-2 minutes.
  9. Taste and adjust seasonings, then serve over rice if desired and enjoy!
