A wee chunk of fresh ginger

1 large (size) medium (hotness) chilli, or the equivalent in smaller ones

How to make your sweet potato and peanut curry

First finely chop or grate the garlic and ginger, chop the onion, finely chop the chilli and stir fry them all for a minute or so.  

If you're watching your weight, if you have a good non-stick pan, you can omit the oil, and use a splash of water.  keep splashing small quantities of water into the pan as it evaporates.

While they're cooking, crush the peanuts with a rolling pin, peel and dice the sweet potato and grate the lime zest.  Add them all to the pan with the coconut milk 200ml water and the curry powder.

Put the pan back on the heat and simmer until the sweet potato softens - probably about 20 to 30 minutes

Have a taste test and add a little salt if you think it needs it, then stir in the spinach and the juice of the lime and heat through until the spinach has wilted

Serve with whatever you like - but best with rice
