The weather in Canberra recently has been far from mild. Icy-cold winds and rain – the effects of being only a few hours from the snow-fields I presume. And with a lingering cold / lurgy, I’ve been craving comfort food. Something to warm me from the inside out – but something that doesn’t take too long to prepare. And this sweet potato, chickpea and cauliflower curry was just that.
Found in a recent edition of the Healthy Food Guide, I loved how speedy it was to prepare. Simply – coconut milk flavoured with tikka curry paste and ginger…
Into which I threw some sweet potato, cauliflower and chickpeas. Simmered until the vegetables were soft, then piled high on some rice noodles and topped with coriander and a squeeze of lime juice.
Yes, my friends, that would be pure ‘comfort-in-a-bowl’.
Perfect for the chilly wintery night on which it was served. What about you? How have you been staying warm this Winter?
What a coincidence, I cooked a similar curry on Monday with sweet potatoes and chickpeas. I love sweet potato with coconut.
How do you plan your meals for the week?
Curries are fab in winter! I've been getting into the soups again. Tom yum goong is on high rotation at the moment – warms you well with that chilli kick!
