  • Total Time: 40 min
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale

2 large sweet potatoes (peeled and cubed)
1 can (15 oz) chickpeas, drained and rinsed
1 onion (finely chopped)
3 cloves garlic (minced)
1 tbsp fresh ginger (grated)
1 can (14 oz) coconut milk
2 tbsp curry powder
1 tsp turmeric
1 tsp cumin
Salt and pepper to taste
2 tbsp vegetable oil
Fresh cilantro for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a large oven-safe pot, heat oil over medium heat. Sauté onion until translucent, about 5 minutes.
  3. Add garlic and ginger; cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
  4. Stir in curry powder, turmeric, and cumin; toast for 30 seconds.
  5. Add sweet potatoes and chickpeas, stirring to coat in spices.
  6. Pour in coconut milk and add enough water to just cover vegetables. Bring to a simmer.
  7. Cover pot and transfer to preheated oven. Bake for 30-35 mins, until sweet potatoes are tender.
  8. Season with salt and pepper. Garnish with fresh cilantro before serving.

Notes

  • For a spicier curry, add a diced chili with the garlic.
  • Leftovers taste even better the next day and freeze well.
  • Serve over rice or with naan for a complete meal.
