Ingredients
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 3 cloves garlic, sliced
  • Thumbnail of fresh ginger, grated
  • 1 large yam (or 2 small ones)
  • 400g tin red kidney beans, drained
  • 1 red or orange pepper, sliced
  • Half teaspoon hot chilli powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground coriander
  • 2 teaspoons garam masala
  • 1 teaspoon mustard seeds
  • 1 can coconut milk
  • 10-12 Brazil nuts, chopped finely
  • 1-2 tablespoons coconut or vegetable oil
Instructions
  1. Saute the onion, garlic and ginger in the oil until the onion starts to soften.
  2. Add the mustard seeds and cook for 1 minute, stirring continuously.
  3. Add the other spices and cook for another 2 minutes, stirring often.
  4. Add all of the other ingredients and stir well.
  5. Cook over a low to medium heat for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Then add most of the Brazil nuts (save a few to sprinkle on top when serving).
  6. Cook for another 5 minutes or so until the yam is softened but still has a bit of 'bite' to it (keep checking to make sure it doesn't get too soft).
  7. Sprinkle the rest of the Brazil nuts on top before serving.
