Ingredients

• 4 medium-sized Sweet potatoes
• 3 tablespoons Coconut oil
• 1 large Yellow onion
• 3 large Garlic cloves
• 1 inch piece Ginger
• 1 teaspoon Cumin seeds
• 1 teaspoon Turmeric powder
• 1 teaspoon Coriander powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Red chili powder
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 cup Fresh cilantro
• 1 cup Water

Directions

Step 1

Begin by peeling and dicing the sweet potatoes into 1-inch cubes. Set aside.

Step 2

Finely chop the yellow onion, mince the garlic cloves, and grate the ginger.

Step 3

In a large pan, heat coconut oil over medium heat.

Step 4

Once the oil is hot, add cumin seeds and let them sizzle for about 30 seconds until they become fragrant.

Step 5

Add the chopped onion to the pan and sauté for 3-4 minutes, until it becomes translucent.

Step 6

Add the minced garlic and grated ginger to the onions. Stir for another minute until aromatic.

Step 7

Mix in the turmeric, coriander, and red chili powder to the onion mixture and stir well to coat evenly.

Step 8

Add the diced sweet potatoes to the pan, stirring to coat them with the spice mixture.

Step 9

Pour in the water and salt. Stir well, cover the pan, and reduce the heat to low.

Step 10

Let the sweet potatoes simmer gently for about 15-20 minutes, or until they are tender and cooked through. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.

Step 11

Once the sweet potatoes are cooked, remove the lid and let any excess moisture evaporate if needed.

Step 12

Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Sprinkle freshly chopped cilantro over the top before serving.

Step 13

Serve hot as a side dish or a main course with a fresh salad.
