Sweet Potato Curry With Spinach And Chickpeas
This a wonderfully full flavored, vegetarian curry. The recipe is adapted from a recipe that i received in an email from vegetarian times.
Steps
You may choose to cook the sweet potatoes however you prefer.
I like to peel , chop and steam mine in a veggie steamer for about 15 minutes.
Baking or boiling work well too.
While sweet potatoes cook , heat 1-2 tsp of canola or vegetable oil over medium heat.
Add onions and saut 2-3 minutes , or until they begin to soften.
Next , add the curry powder , cumin , and cinnamon , and stir to coat the onions evenly with spices.
Add tomatoes with their juices , and the chickpeas , stir to combine.
Add cup water and raise heat up to a strong simmer for about a minute or two.
Next , add the fresh spinach , a couple handfuls at a time , stirring to coat with cooking liquid.
When all the spinach is added to the pan , cover and simmer until just wilted , about 3 minutes.
Add the cooked sweet potatoes to the liquid , and stir to coat.
Simmer for another 3-5 minutes , or until flavors are well combined.
Transfer to serving dish , toss with fresh cilantro , and serve hot.
This dish is .
