An Oldways recipe and photo

How’d it Taste?

  • JMM says:

    I added lentils ( soaked) and craisins and omitted the zucchini

  • Jsnice Alderman says:

    Those sweet potatoes takes a little bit longer to cook, so can you boil them alone in another pot; and then add the sweet potatoes to the rest of the vegetables.

  • Hilda says:

    I also added just about extra 1/4 tsp + of curry powder based on review. Mild curry, but good recipe. Added chickpeas with sweet potatoes.

  • Granny says:

    This recipe made a very mild curry dish that was easy to prepare. The photo shows it containing chickpeas which are not included in the ingredient list so I did not add them. It was tasty enough that I will make again but the next time I will increase the amount of cumin and curry powder. I will also add more coconut milk. I slightly reduced the cooking time so the vegetables still had a “bite” and were not mushy.

    • Cynthia says:

      The staff person who created that recipe has left Oldways, so I wasn’t able to ask about the chickpeas. I think they’d be a great addition to this recipe, though. Did you add the chickpeas when you made it?
