Sweet potato, cauliflower and chickpea curry
Background
This sweet potato, cauliflower and chickpea curry is a super healthy vegan meal, served with brown basmati rice and a crispy salad on the side. If the sweet potatoes are organic, don’t peel them, as most of the nutrients are in and right under the skin.
