Vegan Sweet Potato and Kale Curry

What a nice day here in Burlington for the start of April. I started the day off with a 6 km jog and a 6 km walk along our beautiful lake front in Burlington Onatrio. Lots of people were walking their dogs and at the park with children, the hustle and bustle of a spring day.

I love this curry by its self, it’s more like a stew but you can enjoy it with a side of rice or quinoa. It has just enough spice to give it a little bite without burning your mouth off. The coconut milk gives it a rich creamy texture and I love sweet potatoes. If you are eating this like a stew it will serve 2 people, but if you add a side of rice or quinoa it will serve 3.

I find cooking this in a large wok easier that in a large cooking pot.
