Lentil Sweet Potato Coconut Curry image

This is my own recipe combining several of my favourite ingredients. This can be altered in a variety of ways, including adding different vegetables such as cauliflower or white potato, adding grilled chicken, paneer or a tin or two of chickpeas. This makes a substantial batch, which I usually portion out and freeze.

Time 30m

Yield 7 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

20 g oil (or butter)
4 garlic cloves, minced
75 g fresh ginger, minced
150 g white onions, diced
2 red chilies, seeded and chopped finely
1/4 cup curry powder (I use Schwartz)
1 teaspoon salt (or to taste)
350 g red lentils (dry, rinsed)
700 g sweet potatoes, peeled and diced
200 g courgettes, chopped
1 cup coconut cream

Steps:

  • Heat oil in a large pan over medium high heat.
  • Sauté the onions, garlic and ginger until onions are tender, but not browned.
  • Add the curry powder and stir through.
  • Add the lentils, sweet potato and courgette, stir and just barely cover with water (you can use vegetable or chicken stock if you prefer).
  • Reduce heat and simmer covered for about 20 minutes until the potatoes are tender and the lentils are tender. If there's quite a bit of liquid you can add more lentils. Add salt to taste.
  • Add coconut milk and simmer for a few minutes.
  • Serve over rice, with naan or just enjoy on its own.
