Cooking steps

Roast the Sweet Potato
1
  • Preheat the oven to 240°C/220°C fan/gas mark 9.
  • Chop the sweet potato into 2cm chunks (peeling optional). Place onto a large (lined) baking tray.
  • Drizzle with oil. Season with salt and pepper and then toss to coat. Spread out in a single layer.
  • When the oven is hot, roast on the top shelf until golden, 20-30 mins. Turn the tray halfway through.

TIP: Use two baking trays if necessary.

Get Prepped
2
  • Trim and thinly slice the scallion, keeping the white and green parts separate.
  • Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press). Zest and quarter the lime.
  • Halve the bell pepper and discard the core and seeds. Chop into 1cm chunks.
  • Drain and rinse the beans in a sieve.
  • Stir the coconut milk (or shake the packet) to dissolve any lumps.
Fry Your Veg
3
  • Place a large pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil.
  • Once hot, add the prawns, white of the scallion and bell pepper. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw prawns. Prawns are cooked when pink on the outside and opaque in the middle.
  • Season with salt and pepper and fry until soft and sweet, stirring occasionally, 4-5 mins.
  • Add the garlic and garam masala and fry until fragrant, 30 secs.
Simmer the Stew
4
  • Add the chopped tomatoes, beans, 100ml water (per 2P), stock and the coconut milk.
  • Stir until everything is well combined.
  • Bring the stew to the boil.
  • Cover and simmer for 8-10 mins.
  • Season to taste with salt and pepper.
Finishing Touches
5
  • Remove the pan from the heat.
  • Stir in the roasted sweet potato.
  • Add the lime zest and a squeeze of lime juice.
  • Taste and season with salt, pepper, sugar and more lime juice if desired.

TIP: Loosen the stew with a splash of water if you feel it's too thick.

Garnish and Serve
6
  • Spoon the prawn and sweet potato stew into bowls.
  • Serve any remaining lime wedges alongside. 
  • Finish with a sprinkling of green scallion.
