sweet potato and coconut curry
Hello little sweet potatoes! I wanted to eat some sweet potatoes, so Q went out to the backyard and pulled up a handful.
Chop and pan-fried an onion, a few garlic cloves, a good sized chunk of ginger, and then add the peeled and diced potatoes, about two tablespoons of curry paste (cheater!), about a teaspoon of red pepper flakes, and a can of coconut milk. Let that heat up and start bubbling, add a few big handfuls of chopped fresh spinach, and let the works simmer till the potatoes are tender. When it’s about ready, add a shot of soy sauce, and serve over rice.
Blurry and steamy photo, but photo nonetheless.
Simple as that, and DANG! It’s remarkably good for such a simple dish. Would be even better with some firm chickpeas or some good fried tofu like the thai trucks know how to make. Maybe that’s my next project: deep fryer!!!!
