Heat the coconut oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the chopped onion, sautéing until soft and translucent, about 5 minutes.
Stir in the garlic and ginger, cooking until fragrant, which will take about 1 minute.
Add the diced carrot, bell peppers, and zucchini to the pot. Cook while stirring occasionally for around 5-7 minutes, or until the vegetables start to soften.
Add the cubed sweet potatoes to the pot, mixing well with all ingredients.
Next, add the tomato paste, stirring to incorporate it with the vegetables.
Pour in the coconut milk and chicken broth. Stir to combine, then add the cumin, coriander, turmeric, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper.
Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium-high heat. Once simmering, reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let it cook for about 20-25 minutes, or until the sweet potatoes and all vegetables are tender.
Once cooked, stir in the fresh lime juice and chopped cilantro.
Adjust seasoning if needed with more salt or lime juice.
Serve hot, garnished with additional cilantro if desired.
