Ingredients
  

2 large sweet potatoes, peeled and cubed

1 can (15 oz) chickpeas, drained and rinsed

1 medium onion, chopped

3 cloves garlic, minced

1 inch piece of ginger, grated

1 can (14 oz) coconut milk

1 can (14 oz) diced tomatoes

2 tablespoons curry powder

1 teaspoon cumin

1 teaspoon turmeric

1 teaspoon chili powder (adjust to taste)

Salt and pepper to taste

2 tablespoons olive oil

Fresh cilantro for garnish

Juice of 1 lime

Cooked rice or quinoa for serving

Instructions
 

In a large pot or deep skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté for about 5 minutes, until translucent.

    Stir in the minced garlic and grated ginger, cooking for an additional minute until fragrant.

      Add the cubed sweet potatoes to the pot and toss to coat in the onion mixture.

        Sprinkle in the curry powder, cumin, turmeric, chili powder, salt, and pepper, stirring well to combine and toast the spices for about 2 minutes.

          Pour in the diced tomatoes (with juice) and coconut milk, then add the chickpeas. Stir to ensure everything is well mixed.

            Bring the curry to a gentle simmer, cover, and cook for 20-25 minutes, or until the sweet potatoes are tender, stirring occasionally.

              Once cooked, adjust the seasoning if necessary, then stir in the lime juice.

                Serve the curry over cooked rice or quinoa, and garnish with fresh cilantro.
