How to make it

  1. 1

    In a large skillet, warm a little oil over medium heat. Add the diced sweet potatoes and cook for about 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they start to soften.

  2. 2

    Stir in the red curry paste, cooking for 1 minute until fragrant. Make sure it coats all the sweet potato pieces.

  3. 3

    Pour in the full fat coconut milk and bring to a gentle simmer. Let it cook for 5-7 minutes, allowing the sweet potatoes to become tender and the sauce to thicken slightly.

  4. 4

    Add the drained and rinsed chickpeas to the skillet. Stir them in and let them warm through for 2-3 minutes.

  5. 5

    Finally, add the fresh spinach. Cook for just a couple of minutes, stirring until the spinach wilts into the creamy sauce. Serve immediately and enjoy your wholesome meal.
