Lentil & Sweet Potato Curry

Use up the sweet potatoes and lentils in your share this week!

This my recipe. I researched the science and uses of lentils, looked at several recipes, and then mixed what I learned with my own style, and voila! I hope you enjoy. C.L.

2 Tbs coconut oil

1 cup onion, diced 

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 Tbs curry powder 

1 tsp salt 

sprinkle of black pepper (yes, "sprinkle" is an official measurement. Not to be confused with "a dash"). 

1 large sweet potato, peeled and cut into 1" chunks 

1 large carrot, sliced

1 cup lentils, rinsed 

3 1/2 cups vegetable broth 

1/2 cup coconut milk 

Heat oil in pan. Add onion and saute on medium-low heat for 5 minutes. Add garlic, curry, salt, and pepper and cook for 1 minute. 

Stir in sweet potato, carrot, lentils, and vegetable broth. Bring to a boil and then simmer uncovered for about 30 minutes or until tends. 

Stir in coconut milk and enjoy! 

Serve over rice and top with cilantro for a complete meal.
