Ingredients
  

  • - 2 medium sweet potatoes peeled and diced
  • - 1 cup red split lentils rinsed
  • - 1 can coconut milk
  • - 1 onion chopped
  • - 2 cloves garlic minced
  • - 1 tablespoon ginger minced
  • - 1 tablespoon curry powder
  • - 1 teaspoon turmeric
  • - 1 teaspoon cumin
  • - 2 cups vegetable broth
  • - Salt and pepper to taste
  • - Fresh cilantro for garnish

Instructions
 

  • In a large pot, heat a splash of water or a small amount of olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes.
  • Add the minced garlic and ginger to the pot and cook for another minute, stirring frequently to avoid burning.
  • Stir in the curry powder, turmeric, and cumin, cooking for an additional minute until the spices are fragrant.
  • Add the diced sweet potatoes, rinsed lentils, coconut milk, and vegetable broth to the pot. Bring the mixture to a boil.
  • Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let simmer for 25-30 minutes or until the sweet potatoes and lentils are tender. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
  • Season with salt and pepper to taste. If desired, use an immersion blender to blend part of the curry for a creamier texture, then stir well.
  • Serve hot, garnished with fresh cilantro.
