Sweet Potato Curry

Autumn is such a wonderful season. The leaves are falling, chunky jumpers and boots are in and the food is comforting and nourishing. Whilst summer is great, autumn has its own benefits. I really love making tasty, rich dishes full of heat and this sweet potato curry fits the bill perfectly.

This dish is your perfect base for a filling curry for those colder nights. This sweet potato curry is warming, filling and cheap to make. It makes the perfect weekday family meal and even my partner loves it. It is vegan too. What’s not to love? I live a pretty hectic life with a full time job so I find this dish is a great go to when time is short. Full of all the good stuff – low in refined carbs, packed with veggies and of course chilli is good for overall health.
