Ingredients

  • 3 tablespoon avocado oil
  • 2 medium sweet potatoes peeled and cubed, about 1 ½ - 2 cups
  • 3 shallots sliced
  • 2 teaspoon Thai red curry paste
  • 2 cups vegetable stock
  • 2 cups baby spinach packed
  • ½ can coconut milk about 1 cup

Instructions

  • Heat some avocado oil in a Dutch oven. Sauté the shallots over medium heat till translucent.
  • Add the cubed sweet potatoes and homemade red curry paste, give it a quick stir and add the vegetable stock to this. Cover and cook till the sweet potatoes are tender.
  • Open the pot and add the baby spinach to the pot. Mix well.
  • Let it cook over medium heat till the spinach wilts.
  • Now, add the coconut milk and mix it in. Simmer till the curry steams and serve hot.

Notes

  • Try to make the curry paste at home if possible. The fresh burst of flavors from homemade curry paste is another level altogether.
  • You can add some tofu to add some protein and make it a complete dish in itself.
  • There is salt in the curry paste, so I don't add any extra salt in the curry. But always taste and add salt if needed. The curry paste you use may have less salt than what you need.
