Ingredients

  • 2 plum tomatoes

  • 1 large sweet potato, peeled

  • 2 tsp hot curry powder

  • 2 tsp cumin seeds

  • 1/4 cup smooth peanut butter

  • 2 cups vegetable broth

  • 1 large cauliflower, cut into florets

  • 540-mL can lentils, drained and rinsed

  • 1 cup coarsely chopped cilantro

Instructions

  • Chop tomatoes and sweet potato. Then coat a large, wide saucepan with vegetable oil and set over medium heat. Add curry and cumin seeds. Stir until fragrant, about 1 min. Add tomatoes and stir often until they start to break down, 4 to 6 min. Stir in peanut butter and broth. Bring to a boil, then add sweet potato. Cover and reduce heat. Boil gently, stirring often, until almost soft, about 10 min. Then stir in cauliflower and lentils. When it returns to a boil, cover and stir often until cauliflower is as tender as you like, 5 to 10 min. Stir in cilantro.

Peanut butter is much more than a sandwich spread. Melded into a spicy curry, it adds richness and creaminess.
