Tips:

  • Choose fresh, high-quality vegetables: Look for vegetables that are brightly colored and free of blemishes.
  • Cut the vegetables into uniform pieces: This will help them cook evenly.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: If you overcrowd the pan, the vegetables will steam instead of sautéing.
  • Season the vegetables well: Don't be afraid to add salt, pepper, and other spices to taste.
  • Cook the vegetables until they are tender but still have a little bit of crunch: Overcooked vegetables are mushy and unappetizing.
  • Serve the vegetables immediately: Freshly cooked vegetables are the most flavorful.

Conclusion:

This beef, summer squash, and sweet potato curry is a delicious, healthy, and easy-to-make meal. It's perfect for a weeknight dinner or a casual weekend lunch. The curry is also a great way to use up leftover vegetables. So next time you have some extra vegetables on hand, give this curry a try! You won't be disappointed.
