How to cook Simmered chickpea and sweet potato curry

  1. In a medium-sized pot, warm the coconut oil on medium heat. Stir in the onion and sweet potatoes. Saute the vegetables until the onions are golden and the sweet potatoes begin to soften.
  2. Add the garlic, stirring for another 2 minutes.
  3. Stir in the curry powder, turmeric, salt, black pepper, and crushed red pepper, if using. Gently stir in the drained chickpeas taking care not to break them up. Cook for another 3 minutes to get the spices toasted.
  4. Add in the coconut cream. Fill up the can with water and add it into the pot.
  5. Simmer the curry on medium heat for another 40 minutes until it thickens a bit and the sweet potatoes are tender.
  6. Serve over rice with plenty of chopped cilantro, if you like.
