KELANG PALYA (SWEET POTATO CURRY)
This side dish used to be a popular addition to meals when I was growing up. We used the pale flesh sweet potato (second pic) that is more dry and not as sweet as the orange version (first pic). You can also make mashed sweet potatoes using the same seasonings. Note: Regarding the urad dal, there's no need to soak it beforehand. But it does need to be toasted to a golden brown color before proceeding to step 4 or else it will be hard. It can also be left out without affecting the taste much (as a kid with plenty of cavities I used to prefer them left out).

Tips:
- Choose the right sweet potatoes: Look for firm, smooth sweet potatoes with no blemishes or bruises. Avoid any that are soft or have signs of sprouting.
- Cut the sweet potatoes evenly: This will help them cook evenly. Cut them into 1-inch cubes or wedges.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the sweet potatoes, make sure to leave enough space between them so they can brown properly.
- Use a heavy-bottomed pan: This will help to prevent the sweet potatoes from sticking and burning.
- Add the spices at the right time: Add the groundnuts, urad dal, and green chilies early in the cooking process so they have time to infuse the oil with their flavors. Add the turmeric and red chili powder later, so they don't burn.
- Don't overcook the sweet potatoes: They should be tender but still slightly firm. Overcooking will make them mushy.
- Serve immediately: Kelang palya is best served hot with rice or roti.
Conclusion:
Kelang palya is a delicious and healthy dish that is perfect for a quick and easy meal. It is a great way to use up leftover sweet potatoes, and it is also a good source of vitamins and minerals.
