Knowing how to make a curry is so important for many reasons. One, the ingredients involved are usually low cost but healthy, meaning you can get more bang for your buck without having to sacrifice health. Also, if you have vegan or vegetarian people in your life who you want to cook for, curries are a great option when hosting a dinner party. This one is super flavorful and all gets cooked in on pot, so let’s get started!
Method
- Cut sweet potatoes into a small dice so they cook quickly in the pot.
- Sautee the sweet potatoes in coconut oil
- While they’re cooking, cut onion, garlic, ginger, and a chili. If you don’t want the curry spicy, omit the chili.
- Once the sweet potatoes have started to soften, add in the onion, garlic, ginger, and chili.
- Pour in diced tomatoes or tomato puree as well as the following spices: curry, turmeric, cumin, coriander, paprika, and salt.
- Cook everything together for a few minutes so the flavors can meld.
- Then, add in lentils and enough water according to how much you’re using.
- Cook everything together until the lentils get plump and soft.
- Serve with a sprinkling of cilantro or parsley.
