Ingredients
Instructions
Cut the sweet potato into big chunks and cook for about 15 minutes or until soft. Then drain.
In a frying pan, heat the vegetable oil and sauté the onion and garlic until almost tender. Add the curry powder and cook for a further few minutes. Stir in the chopped tomatoes, garbanzo beans and vegetable stock. Bring the mixture to a boil.
In the meantime, chop the cooked sweet potato into smaller chunks and add to the curry mixture. Add the cilantro and cook for a further 10 minutes or until everything is heated through.
Notes
Serve immediately with rice or Indian Naan bread.
You can make this curry hotter or milder by adding more or less curry powder than the amount suggested. If served only for adults, try 3 teaspoons curry powder.
