- In a large pan, add 125ml of water, ginger and sweet potatoes over medium heat.
- Bring to a simmer and once simmering, cover with a lid and cook for 8 minutes.
- While the potatoes are cooking, in a separate bowl, mix the coconut milk, curry paste, the maple sugar and chilli flakes until smooth.
- Once the 8 minutes are up, add the coconut milk mixture and stir well in the pan.
- Bring it back to a simmer and cook another 5 minutes.
- Add the lime juice, stir and heat through for about 30 seconds.
To serve:
- Plate a portion of rice and then add curry sauce.
