Prepare Rice according to package directions.
Start by chopping all of your vegetables into a medium size dice. I love Chunky Curry. Once the vegetables cook and the sweet potatoes soften in the coconut broth, it melds together.
Heat a large Dutch Oven over a medium flame and add 2 Tablespoons of Olive Oil.
Add chopped Leeks, Celery, and Carrots and stir for one minute.
Add Garlic. Stir for 1 minute until garlic starts to turn light golden.
Add Red Peppers, Sweet Potatoes, Chickpeas, One Cup of Water, and Coconut Milk.
Add the Ginger, Turmeric, and Cumin.
Add Salt and Pepper.
Stir everything and loosely cover the pot over a LOW SIMMER. Cook for 30 – 45 minutes until the vegetables are very tender. Sweet Potatoes will be soft and breaking apart. Add Peas and turn off the flame. Stir and add Salt and additional Pepper.
Serve over rice. Top with chopped scallions and cilantro.
Optional – add chopped peanuts on top.
Enjoy knowing you are eating a healthy, anti-inflammatory meal!
Add Frozen Peas. Cook for one minute and turn off the flame.
Place each vegetable in a separate bowl. It makes for easy assembly.
*Add chopped peanuts and scallions or cilantro as a topping
*Store tightly covered in the refrigerator or freeze in individual serving containers.
