Ingredients

Scale

2 large sweet potatoes (peeled and cubed)
1 can (15 oz) chickpeas, drained and rinsed
1 onion (finely chopped)
3 cloves of garlic (minced)
1 tbsp fresh ginger (grated)
1 can (14 oz) coconut milk
2 tbsp curry powder
1 tsp turmeric

  2. Add the minced garlic and grated ginger, cooking for another minute until fragrant.
  3. Stir in the curry powder, turmeric, and cumin. Toast the spices for about 30 seconds to release their flavors.

  7. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  8. Garnish with fresh cilantro before serving.
