Instructions

Roast the Sweet Potato
1

Preheat your oven to 240°C/220°C fan/gas mark 9.

Chop the sweet potatoes into 1cm chunks (no need to peel). Pop onto a large baking tray. Drizzle with oil, season with salt and pepper, then toss to coat.

Spread out in a single layer. TIP: Use two baking trays if necessary.

When the oven is hot, roast on the top shelf until golden, 20-25 mins. Turn halfway through.

Fry the Tofu
2

Meanwhile, chop the tofu into 2cm cubes. Pat dry with kitchen paper.

Heat a drizzle of oil in a large frying pan on high heat.

Once hot, add the tofu to the pan and fry until golden all over, 6-8 mins. Turn occasionally.

Finish the Prep
3

While the tofu cooks, peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).

Zest and halve the lime.

Build the Flavour
4

Once golden, transfer the tofu to a bowl, toss with the Indonesian style spice mix and set aside.

Pop the (now empty) pan back on medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil.

Once hot, add the garlic, ginger puree and tomato puree. Cook for 1 min.

Pour in the coconut milk, veg stock paste and water for the sauce (see pantry for amount), then bring to the boil.

Simmer your Stew
5

Simmer until the sauce has reduced slightly, stirring occasionally, 3-4 mins.

Stir in the spinach a handful at a time until it's wilted and everything is piping hot, 1-2 mins.

Remove from the heat, squeeze in some lime juice and add half the soy sauce. Taste and add more lime juice and soy sauce if needed.

Finish and Serve
6

Stir the roasted sweet potato and fried tofu through the stew, then add a splash more water if you feel it needs it. Warm through if needed.

When everything's piping hot, serve your sweet potato and tofu stew in bowls.

Finish with a sprinkle of lime zest. Enjoy!
