Method
- Preheat the oven to gas 6, 200°C, fan 180°C. Toss the sweet potatoes with 1 tbsp oil and 1 tsp curry powder, and season. Roast for 20 mins until soft and golden.
- Meanwhile, heat the remaining oil in a saucepan over a medium heat. Fry the onion for 5-6 mins until softened, stirring regularly. Add the garlic, ginger, coriander stalks and remaining curry powder and fry for a further 2 mins, stirring until fragrant.
- Add the tomato purée and fry for 1 min. Pour over the coconut milk and add the peanut butter, the chickpeas along with the water from the tin and the roasted sweet potato. Mix together and cook for 10 mins until thickened slightly. Meanwhile, cook the rice to pack instructions.
- Add the spinach to the curry, cover with a lid and cook for 2-4 mins until just wilted. Season to taste.
- Serve the curry with the rice, topped with the coriander leaves and sliced chilli.
