This delicious and simple sweet potato curry with red lentils is vegan, healthy, low in calories, and budget-friendly.

Hi lovely, I hope you and yours are doing great and in good health. Talking about health, let me share with you this hearty sweet potato curry. 

It’s deliciously spiced with Indian curry, fresh turmeric, ginger, garlic, and fresh cilantro. You squeeze a fresh lemon shortly before serving, and I guarantee that you’ll love this sweet potato curry.

A lot of people ask me what to do with their extra sweet potatoes. And I understand them so well, when I was little, the only way sweet potatoes were consumed was either by baking them in very hot ash or by boiling them!

If you too want another sweet potato recipe like this sweet potato chili, then embrace this new curry recipe. It’s tender, spicy, and mmmm…

I make this sweet potato curry with red lentils and zucchini to make it a whole dish that has proteins, carbs, and dietary fiber. I add some coconut milk, but you can add cream of your choice.

This curry recipe has one foot on the stew side while the other is on the soup side. You can opt to mix it into a smooth soup especially for small kids. We love the chunky tender sweet potatoes bites, and chewing is a good way to stay in good health.

Yummy, this lentil curry is really delicious and filling, you don’t need anything else, I promise.

This curry recipe is made with fresh turmeric, red chili, fresh ginger, and fresh garlic to maximize its healing power as they are all anti-inflammatory.
