Serve in bowls or over rice on plates.
It makes such an amazing for dinner, lunch and meal prep. Or if you’re in need for a fast meal that everyone is going to want seconds servings of.
Delicious plain but feel free to serve with rice or quinoa.
Can you freeze chickpeas in a curry?
Absolutely! This Sweet Potato Curry has enough liquid to cover the vegetables so it is so easy for freezing. It also makes it so easy for meal prep and make ahead meals.
Make always sure any curry you prepare has enough liquid that it is good for freezing.
For more variation add lentils for a sweet potato lentil curry which will add even more texture. Into more creamy curries? I got you covered you can add 2 Tbs peanut butter and 1/4 peanuts for topping to make a satay sweet potato curry.

This recipe was spectacular! I like my curries with a lot of sauce, so I added 2 more tablespoons of red curry paste and another can of coconut milk. I also doubled the spinach because I love it. It was super simple to make and will definitely be added to my recipe rotation. Thank you for sharing!

I love you, I love you, I love you. OMG, this recipe is everything you could hope for on these crisper beautiful fall days. I recently came across some BEAUTIFUL local sweet potatoes and have been enjoying them, however, I need to satisfy my spicy cravings and this is going to do the trick. Cannot wait to make a large batch and freeze some as well to use later. I know it will come in so handy.

I don’t usually comment on recipes I try, but I had to come back here and say how DELICIOUS this was! Super easy and will now be a staple in my home. I served it over rice and topped with sriracha for some heat and cilantro because why not. Thank you for this!

Hi Florian!
Should I boil the potatoes beforehand to soften them up a bit? I know they take quite a awhile to cook or does it suffice to cut them into small enough pieces and just let them simmer in the sauce to let them cook?
Thanks!
