Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil
  • 1 yellow onion, chopped
  • 1/2 teaspoon sea salt, more to taste
  • 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tablespoon curry powder
  • 1 teaspoon garam masala
  • 1/2 teaspoon turmeric
  • 1/2 teaspoon cumin
  • 1 (14-ounce) can full-fat coconut milk
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup
  • 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 medium sweet potato, cubed
  • 1 cup cauliflower florets
  • 1 cup chopped green beans
  • 1 cup chopped red bell pepper
  • 1/2 cup frozen peas
  • Cilantro and lime wedges, for serving
  • Cooked rice or naan, for serving

Instructions

  1. Heat the coconut oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the onion and salt and cook until soft, about 5 minutes.
  2. Add the ginger and garlic and cook for another minute, until fragrant.
  3. Stir in the curry powder, garam masala, turmeric, and cumin. Cook for 30 seconds to toast the spices.
  4. Pour in the coconut milk, water, lime juice, maple syrup, and black pepper. Stir to combine.
  5. Add the sweet potato, cauliflower, green beans, and red bell pepper. Bring to a simmer and cook for 20-25 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender.
  6. Stir in the peas and cook for another 2 minutes.
  7. Taste and adjust seasonings if necessary. Serve hot, topped with cilantro and lime wedges, with rice or naan on the side.

Notes

  • You can swap out vegetables based on what’s in season or what you have on hand.
  • This curry keeps well in the fridge for up to 4 days and tastes even better the next day.
  • Use full-fat coconut milk for a richer, creamier curry.
