Instructions

1

a) Preheat your oven to 240°C/220°C fan/gas mark 9. Boil a half-full kettle.

b) Chop the sweet potatoes into 1cm chunks (no need to peel).

c) Put the sweet potato chunks 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, 16-18 mins. Turn halfway through.

2

a) Meanwhile, pour the boiled water into a medium saucepan with 0.25 tsp salt on high heat. Add the rice and cook for 12-13 mins.

b) Drain in a sieve and pop back in the pan. Cover with a lid and leave to the side until ready to serve.

3

a) Meanwhile, zest and cut the lime into wedges. 

b) Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).

c) Drain the lentils in a sieve.

4

a) Heat a drizzle of oil in a large saucepan on medium-high heat. 

b) Once hot, add the red Thai style paste, Thai style spice blend and garlic. Stir-fry until fragrant, 1-2 mins.

c) Add the coconut milk, soy sauce, peanut butter and lentils to the pan. Stir well until combined.

d) Bring to the boil and simmer until thickened, 6-8 mins. TIP: If your peanut butter has hardened, pop it in a bowl of hot water for 1 min.

5

a) When ready, stir through the roasted sweet potato, sweet chilli sauce and a squeeze of lime juice. Remove from the heat.

b) Taste, and season with salt and pepper if needed. Add a splash of water if it's a little thick.

6

a) When everything's ready, fluff up the rice with a fork and stir through the lime zest. Share between your bowls.

b) Top with the lentil curry.

c) Serve any remaining lime wedges alongside for squeezing over.

Enjoy!
