INSTRUCTIONS
4 SERVINGS VEGAN
Fortunately, many Southeast Asian ingredients formerly considered exotic
are now regularly stocked on supermarket shelves. You'll need Thai curry
paste and a stalk of lemon grass to get the great taste that this quick
recipe delivers. If your supermarket doesn't carry them, try an Asian
market. It's worth the effort to have these ingredients on hand. Serve this
memorable stew on its own or over jasmine or basmati rice.
In large saucepan, combine water, stock powder, lemon grass and curry
paste. Bring to a boil. Add sweet potatoes, cover and cook over medium heat
for 7 minutes. Stir in beans and salt to taste. Cover and cook until sweet
potatoes are tender, about 3 minutes more. Add a bit more water if mixture
becomes too dry. Remove pieces of lemon grass before serving.
