Sweet Potato & Chickpea Curry

This comforting vegetarian (and vegan) curry is packed full of goodness – from Vitamin A-rich sweet potatoes and fibre-filled chickpeas to iron-packed spinach – all cooked in creamy coconut milk and served with yoghurt. Perfect for a weeknight meal.

Recipe Ingredients

  • 150g basmati rice
  • ½ large onion, finely chopped
  • 3 garlic cloves, finely chopped
  • 3 tsp curried blend
  • 1 tin coconut milk
  • 1 tin chopped tomatoes
  • 1 medium sweet potato, peeled & chopped into chunks
  • 1 tin chickpeas – drained

Recipe Instructions

Cook rice until done (after 10 – 12 mins it should be soft to touch), drain & put aside. Prepare vegetables as described.

In a saucepan over a medium heat, sweat onion with a little cooking oil until soft & translucent (2 – 3 mins).

Add garlic to onions and cook out for 1 minute before adding curried blend – stir continuously to avoid too much smoke – turn down heat if necessary.

Add coconut milk, chopped tomatoes & sweet potatoes to saucepan bring to a boil over medium then turn down to a simmer until sweet potatoes are tender (12 – 15 mins) adding a touch of water if things are looking a little dry.

Add chickpeas, give everything a good stir and allow to simmer for a final 5 minutes – until chickpeas are just cooked through.

Finally taste and adjust seasoning (salt & pepper).

Serve with basmati rice & optional extras.
