Directions
- Wash and dry all fresh produce.
- Peel and medium-dice the sweet potatoes.
- In a medium saucepan, combine water, coconut milk, and red curry paste; simmer until the broth is cohesive.
- When simmering begins, add the sweet potatoes and cook until they soften, stirring occasionally for about 6–8 minutes.
- Meanwhile, trim the green beans and cut them into 1-inch pieces; put them in a bowl. Trim and halve the zucchini lengthwise, then slice into thin half-moons and add to the bowl.
- Rinse and drain the lentils; add them to the bowl with the vegetables.
- When the sweet potatoes are tender, stir in the vegetables, lentils, salt, and pepper; bring the mixture back to a simmer.
- Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are fork-tender, about 3–4 more minutes; remove from heat.
- Cut the lime into wedges for serving.
- Divide the stew into bowls and top with yogurt; serve with lime wedges on the side.
Two tips
- Leftovers keep well in a sealed container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
- For a brighter finish, add a squeeze of lime juice or an extra dollop of yogurt at serving.
