Sweet Potato and Chickpea Curry

Last night we decided to try a sweet potato and chickpea curry which we had seen on a cookery programme last week and it was surprisingly tasty and filling. It was also cheap and really easy to cobble together.

So for this one you will need:

• ·         1 large sweet potato roughly chopped skin on per person
• ·         1 medium chopped onion
• ·         1 sliced bell pepper
• ·         1 can chickpeas drained
• ·         Curry paste
• ·         1 carton pasatta
• ·         1 chopped chilli

So to start add a little oil to a large pan. Over a medium heat fry the onion, bell pepper, chilli and sweet potatoes until the potato starts to soften. Add a heaped tablespoon of curry paste and the chickpeas and fry for a further few minutes before adding the passata. Now allow the curry to simmer for approximately twenty minutes and the sauce to reduce and thicken.

When ready serve with rice and enjoy.
