  5. Bring to a simmer and once simmering, cover with a lid and cook for 8 minutes.
  6. While the potatoes are cooking, in a separate bowl, mix the coconut milk, curry paste, the maple sugar and chilli flakes until smooth.
  7. Once the 8 minutes are up, add the coconut milk mixture and stir well in the pan.
  8. Bring it back to a simmer and cook another 5 minutes.
  9. Add the lime juice, stir and heat through for about 30 seconds.
