Sweet Potato Curry

[vicalis]

My first picture post. Lots of pictures under the cut:



I made a lot of this, and I made it up as I went along, so quantities are pretty arbitrary. I started by peeling 4 sweet potatoes:



Then I diced them:



Then I had a plate full of sweet potato:



Next I peeled and chopped 2 onions:







Then I peeled, crushed, and chopped 5 cloves of garlic:







Add oil to a large pot (or pan if you're making a smaller amount):



Heat oil, then add onions:



Heat and stir onions until they start to change color, then add garlic:



Add curry paste (if available, curry powder or random other spices, preferably involving something like cayenne would probably also work):



At this point, I remembered that I wanted to use ginger, so I chopped about this much of that:





Add to pot and stir:



Add sweet potato:



Chop mushrooms:



Add coconut milk (I used 2 cans):



Add mushrooms and salt:



At this point, I started making some rice:



Then I added peanut butter:



And soy sauce:



Chop green onions:



And 2 tomatoes:



Add everything, stir, cover, and simmer until the potatoes are tender:



Serve with rice:
