A quick post tonight to share our at-home attempt at the most delicious item of last week's Hu Kitchen adventure: curried sweet potatoes!
Simple to make, especially if you've already prepared a batch of sweet potatoes for the week. The recipe includes many spices commonly found in pantries and takes limited tools to make (food processor, knife, spoon... you're good to go!). Enjoy this on its own or as a side. We combined this with grilled tahini-miso tempeh and massaged coconut kale. It added some lovely smoothness to an otherwise chew-tastic dinner.
Thanks to Hu Kitchen (and the Primal Blueprint, which I've been reading lots about this week) for the inspiration. Give this dandy little recipe a go and let me know what you think!
Cheers to a lovely Wednesday evening,
