Vegan Coconut Curry (an Easy Weeknight Dinner!)
Health Highlights
Serving over quinoa as a complete source of plant-based protein, and you can add in any vegetables.

Ingredients


1 tsp Coconut oil
1/2 medium Yellow onion (chopped)
2 clove(s) Garlic (minced)
4 tsp Curry powder ((or more; to taste)))
1 can(s) (13.5 oz) Coconut milk, sweetened
1 tbsp Tamari, gluten free, reduced sodium
1 tbsp Maple syrup (pure; ((or more; to taste)))
1/2 tsp Salt
1 medium potato(es) Sweet potato (chopped)
454 gm Mixed vegetable salad (assorted)

Instructions


  1. Heat the olive oil in a large pot over high heat, and saute the onions until they start to soften, about 5 minutes. Add in the garlic and stir for one more minute.
  2. Add in the coconut milk, curry powder, tamari, maple syrup and salt and whisk well to combine. (Since curry powders can vary by brand, feel free to start with only 3 teaspoons and add more to your taste.)
  3. Taste the sauce and adjust any other flavors as needed (keep in mind that the addition of veggies will dilute the saltiness), then bring the sauce to a simmer and add in the chopped sweet potatoes. Cover the pan, and allow the sweet potatoes to steam in the sauce for 5 minutes.
  4. Remove the lid and add the rest of the vegetables, since non-starchy vegetables will cook faster than the sweet potatoes. Stir the vegetables to coat them in the sauce, then cover the pot again. Lower the heat and cook until the sweet potatoes and vegetables are fork-tender, about 8 to 10 more minutes.
  5. Serve the vegetables and curry sauce over cooked rice, quinoa, or cauliflower rice. Leftover curry can be stored in the fridge for up to 4 days.
