A popular dish in Indian is a Dhal curry and I have designed this Lentil and Sweet Potato Stew as an inspired alternative from the much loved authentic curry.
Full and filling, I use onions, garlic, green lentils and sweet potatoes cooked in a vegetable broth and seasoned with bay leaves, turmeric, cumin, black pepper and sea salt. A delicious vegan dinner for you and the whole family!
