Coconut bean curry with rice and quinao
This was such a random meal but it turned out really delicious! Roasted a sweet potato in tin foil in the oven on medium heat for about an hr then a cooked up some beans which had been soaking all night, you could use any white beans, added some chopped cabbage (from the garden) towards the end of the cooking time. Stir fried some onion and garlic and added broccoli (from the garden) and a tin of sweet corn. Then I stirred in a sachet of coconut cream, the solid stuff! A splash of tamari and a tsp of sugar. You could spice this up with a bit of chilli instead of the sugar, I’ve got kids to feed though and a spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down as they say! Lol! 😊 The boys also ran out to the our rescue chickens to have a fried egg on top but that’s optional I guess!
- sweet potato
- broccoli
- dried beans of choice
- garlic
- onion
- tamari sauce
- coconut cream
- chilli
enjoy!
