How to make Sweet Potato Curry

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.

Hi Kathy! You absolutely can! I would say start with 2 tbs and go from there according to your preferences. Hope that helps and let me know what you think.

I’m making this for my office and have 2 vegans (I am not one lol) Can I get grow it all in a crockpot and let it stew together? Or prepare ahead and then throw in a crockpot at work? Would have about 3-4 hours before consumption- do you think it will turn out mushy?

Hi Robin! I haven't tried that so I can't say for sure. I guess it would work, but keep in mind to check your appliance for precise cooking time. Let mew know if you try this.

Would it be weird to substitute coconut milk with regular milk?

Hi Rita! You can do that, yet the result will be really different. You can expect a less creamy and thinner curry from the texture. Hope that helps and let me know what you think.

The whole family enjoyed it, didn’t have bell pepper(kinda icky) but substituted broccoli and carrot, made per cooking instructions but seemed like it didn’t look as soupy as the photos. Added a couple cups of vegetable broth and another Tb of curry paste. Served over rice. We will definetly make this again. Thank you for sharing
