Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams sweet potatoes
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil
- 1 teaspoon mustard seeds
- 1 teaspoon cumin seeds
- 1 medium, finely chopped onion
- 1 inch piece, grated ginger
- 3 cloves, minced garlic
- 1 small, finely chopped green chili
- 0.5 teaspoon turmeric powder
- 1 teaspoon coriander powder
- 0.5 teaspoon cumin powder
- 1 cup water
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons, chopped fresh coriander leaves
Instructions
Peel the sweet potatoes and cut them into medium-sized cubes.
Heat coconut oil in a large pan over medium heat.
Add the mustard seeds and let them begin to pop.
Add cumin seeds and sauté for a few seconds until aromatic.
Add finely chopped onion to the pan and sauté until golden brown.
Add grated ginger, minced garlic, and chopped green chili to the pan. Sauté for 2-3 minutes until the raw smell disappears.
Stir in turmeric powder, coriander powder, and cumin powder, and sauté for a minute.
Add the sweet potato cubes to the pan, mixing well to coat them with the spices.
Pour in 1 cup of water and sprinkle salt. Stir well.
Cover the pan with a lid and let the sweet potatoes cook over medium heat for about 20-25 minutes or until they are tender. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking and ensure even cooking.
Once the sweet potatoes are cooked through, uncover the pan and increase the heat slightly to evaporate any excess liquid.
Garnish with fresh coriander leaves before serving.
Serve the Paleo Aloo Sabji hot, alongside your favorite Paleo-friendly bread or as a standalone dish.
