Categories     Curries

Time 30m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/2 large sweet onions, chopped or 2 scallions, thinly sliced
1 -2 teaspoon canola oil
2 tablespoons curry powder
1 tablespoon cumin
1 teaspoon cinnamon
10 ounces fresh spinach, washed, stemmed and coarsely chopped
2 large sweet potatoes, peeled and diced (about 2 lbs)
1 (14 1/2 ounce) can chickpeas, rinsed and drained
1/2 cup water
1 (14 1/2 ounce) can diced tomatoes, can substitute fresh if available
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro, for garnish
basmati rice or brown rice, for serving

Steps:

  • You may choose to cook the sweet potatoes however you prefer.
  • I like to peel, chop and steam mine in a veggie steamer for about 15 minutes.
  • Baking or boiling work well too.
  • While sweet potatoes cook, heat 1-2 tsp of canola or vegetable oil over medium heat.
  • Add onions and sauté 2-3 minutes, or until they begin to soften.
  • Next, add the curry powder, cumin, and cinnamon, and stir to coat the onions evenly with spices.
  • Add tomatoes with their juices, and the chickpeas, stir to combine.
  • Add ½ cup water and raise heat up to a strong simmer for about a minute or two.
  • Next, add the fresh spinach, a couple handfuls at a time, stirring to coat with cooking liquid.
  • When all the spinach is added to the pan, cover and simmer until just wilted, about 3 minutes.
  • Add the cooked sweet potatoes to the liquid, and stir to coat.
  • Simmer for another 3-5 minutes, or until flavors are well combined.
  • Transfer to serving dish, toss with fresh cilantro, and serve hot.
  • This dish is nice served over basmati or brown rice.

Tips:

  • Choose the right sweet potatoes: For this recipe, you want to use firm and starchy sweet potatoes. This will help them hold their shape when cooked.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When you're cooking the sweet potatoes, make sure to not overcrowd the pan. This will help them cook evenly and prevent them from steaming.
  • Use a good quality curry paste: The curry paste is what will give your curry its flavor. Make sure to use a good quality paste that is made with fresh ingredients.
  • Add the spinach at the end: Spinach cooks very quickly, so it's best to add it to the curry at the very end. This will help it retain its color and nutrients.
  • Serve with your favorite sides: This curry is delicious served with rice, quinoa, or naan bread. You can also add a dollop of yogurt or chutney on top.

Conclusion:

This sweet potato curry with spinach and chickpeas is a delicious and healthy meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. It's easy to make and packed with flavor. The sweet potatoes, spinach, and chickpeas are all good sources of nutrients, and the curry paste adds a delicious kick of flavor. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give this curry a try. You won't be disappointed!
