Sweet potato and cabbage stew
This sweet potato and cabbage stew is a potage or thick soup really – it’s super healthy and hearty too. If you want it to be spicy, swap some of the paprika for chilli powder or serve it with chilli flakes like I have here. Serve it with rice or flat bread.
Ingredients
Method
- Finely chop the onion and garlic.
- Peel the sweet potatoes and carrot, then cut into bite-sized chunks.
