Ingredients
- 2 sweet potatoes, spiralized
- 1 can coconut milk
- 1 cup mixed vegetables (carrots, peas, bell peppers)
- 2 tbsp curry powder
- 1 onion, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- Salt to taste
Instructions
- Begin by preparing your ingredients. Spiralize the sweet potatoes to create sweet potato noodles. Set them aside.
- Chop the onion and mince the garlic. Prepare your mixed vegetables by ensuring they are washed and cut into bite-sized pieces if necessary.
- In a large skillet or saucepan, heat a tablespoon of oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté for about 3-4 minutes until it becomes translucent.
- Add the minced garlic to the pan and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, stirring frequently to prevent burning.
- Once the garlic is fragrant, add the mixed vegetables to the skillet. Stir well and cook for about 5 minutes until they begin to soften.
- Sprinkle the curry powder over the vegetables and stir to combine, allowing the spices to toast slightly for about 1 minute.
- Pour in the can of coconut milk, stirring to mix everything together. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
- Once simmering, add the spiralized sweet potato noodles to the pan. Gently toss to coat the noodles in the curry sauce.
- Cover the skillet and let it cook for an additional 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sweet potato noodles are tender but still have a slight bite.
- Season the curry with salt to taste, adjusting the flavor as desired.
- Once cooked, remove from heat and let it sit for a couple of minutes before serving.
- Serve the PP Veggie Curry warm, garnished with fresh herbs if desired, and enjoy your delicious and healthy meal!
Tips
- Spiralizing Secrets: When creating sweet potato noodles, choose firm, medium-sized sweet potatoes for the best texture and easiest spiralizing.
- Spice Management: Toast your curry powder briefly to enhance its flavor profile, but be careful not to burn it—this can make the spices taste bitter.
- Coconut Milk Magic: Shake the coconut milk can well before opening to ensure a smooth, well-combined sauce.
- Vegetable Variation: Feel free to swap out mixed vegetables based on what's in season or what you have on hand. Just keep the total volume consistent.
- Tenderness Test: Check the sweet potato noodles periodically while cooking to ensure they remain al dente and don't become mushy.
- Garnish Game: Fresh herbs like cilantro or a squeeze of lime can elevate the dish's flavor and presentation.
- Make-Ahead Friendly: This curry tastes even better the next day, so don't hesitate to prepare it in advance for meal prep.
