Hello,
Sweet potatoes are packed with nutrients and add additional fibre to meals as well. They're filling and go deliciously with curry.
Enjoy!
This sweet potato curry sauce is so versatile and can be added to pretty much any dish to give it some extra vitamins and fiber to it. The sweet potatoes are so delicious and even adding a mix of sweet potatoes with other variations of potatoes would be really good. This looks so delicious and a great addition to any winter or colder months meals, especially since it contains garlic I love having that during colder months too.

This is a great meal for the upcoming colder months and can be made as part of a meal prep or be frozen too. You can add in any vegetables you like to switch it up every now and then too.
Have a healthy day!
