Directions

Step 1

Add equal quantities of rice to hot seasoned water, bring to a boil and cook until the water is absorbed.

Step 2

Add the onions, ginger, lime juice, garlic, turmeric, curry powder, chopped chillis, fish sauce and a large handful of fresh coriander to a blender and blitz until you get a smooth paste. If it’s sticking, add some water to loosen the mix.

Step 3

Add coconut oil to a medium-hot pan and add the sweetpotatoes.

Step 4

Cook the cubed sweetpotatoes for around 4-5 minutes, then add the curry paste.

Step 5

Cook off the paste for a minute, add the coconut milk and honey then bring to a boil. Simmer and allow to cook for 20 minutes or until the sauce has thickened and the potatoes are cooked soft.

Step 6

Serve with the peanuts, coriander and red chilli along with the fluffy basmati rice.
