SOUTH INDIAN SWEET POTATO CURRY RECIPE

Steps:

• Place the onion, garlic, ginger, oil, garam masala, cumin, cardamom, and chili in the bowl of a food processor and puree until a paste forms.

Add the tomato paste and cook for another 1-2 minutes.
• Add the broth, brown sugar, and lime leaf to the pot. Scrape the brown bits up from the bottom of the pot and simmer for 10 minutes.
• Add the yams, cauliflower, carrot, tomatoes, salt and pepper to the pot. Allow it to come to a boil over medium heat, and then reduce heat to medium low. Cover and simmer until vegetables are tender, stirring occasionally, about 8-12 minutes. Add spinach and cook until wilted, about 1 minute. Discard the lime leaf and season with additional salt and pepper as needed. Garnish with fresh cilantro leaves and serve with cooked basmati rice.
