The beauty of Dale Pinnock’s spinach & sweet potato curry is that not only is it a super-easy dish to make, it is also packed with powerful anti-inflammatory compounds and prebiotic components, too
Ingredients
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 2 red onions, thinly sliced
• 2 large garlic cloves, finely chopped
• 1 teaspoon grated root ginger
• 2 green chillies, finely sliced
• 1 teaspoon ground coriander
• 1 teaspoon ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon black mustard seeds
• 1 heaped teaspoon turmeric
• 800g sweet potato, skin-on, chopped
• 375ml vegetable stock
• 150g spinach, coarsely chopped
• large handful coriander leaves, coarsely torn
• 1 tablespoon toasted flaked almonds
• 1 tablespoon desiccated coconut
Method
1 Heat the olive oil in a large saucepan and cook the onions, garlic, ginger and chillies.
2 When the onions have softened, add all the spices and heat until they are becoming fragrant.
3 Add the sweet potato and stock and simmer for 15–20 minutes, until the sweet potato is soft.
4 At this point, add the spinach. Once the spinach has wilted, the curry is ready to serve with coriander leaves, topped with the flaked almonds and sprinkled with the coconut.
