Method
- Heat the olive oil in a large frying pan. Add the onions, fry for 3-4 minutes, then add the sweet potatoes and fry for 15 minutes until the potatoes are almost cooked. Stir regularly to prevent sticking.
- Stir in the curry paste, then add the okra and fry for a minute. Add the tomatoes, fill one of the tins three-quarters full with cold water, add to the pan, then simmer over a low heat for 15 minutes.
- Stir in the kale, chickpeas and yogurt, then bring back to a simmer. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the kale has wilted and the sweet potato is tender.
- Taste and season with the lemon juice and some salt and pepper. Scatter with coriander leaves and serve with yogurt, rice and lemon wedges, if you like.
