A quick and simple curry packed full of veg. Perfect for those week-night meat-free meals. This is so super flexible and will take just about any veggie that needs a good home. Carrots, aubergines, courgettes and baby corn are just a few suggestions. Serve this without rice if you are looking for a high-protein, low-calorie meal (without the rice😉)

Method

Based on 4 servings, adjust as needed.

Step 1

Start by preparing all your vegetables. Slice the onions, deseed and cut the peppers into 3cm pieces, peel and chop the sweet potato into 2cm dice and finely chop the garlic.

Step 2

Place a large saute or casserole pan onto the stove, preferably with a tight-fitting lid and add the oil. Once hot, fry the onions for 4-5 minutes with a pinch of salt. Once slightly translucent, add the curry powder, paprika, ground coriander, chopped garlic and tomato puree. Cook for a further 2 minutes coating the onions well.

Step 3

Now add the peppers, sweet potato, coconut milk, drained black beans and the hot vegetable stock. Season again with salt and pepper and bring to a simmer with the lid on. Turn down the heat and allow to cook for 15 minutes until the sweet potatoes are just about tender. If cooking uncooked (from raw) rice, get this on now.

Step 4

Remove the lid and add the washed spinach, green beans and peas for a further 5 minutes until the spinach has wilted and the peas and green beans have defrosted. Allow a little more time and potentially a splash more stock if you are cooking fresh green beans. Heat the rice (if using precooked) according to the packet instructions.

Step 5

Serve the rice, pile on the curry and serve with a spoonful of coconut yoghurt per serving and a sprinkling of chopped coriander, if you wish.
