Step 2
Stir in sweet potato and 1 cup water. Bring to the boil. Reduce heat. Cover with lid. Simmer, covered for 12-15 minutes, until sweet potato is just tender.
Step 3
Stir in chickpeas, beans and evaporated milk. Simmer, covered a further 5 minutes, or until beans are just tender.
Step 4
Meanwhile, prepare rice in microwave as directed on packaging.
Step 5
Sprinkle curry with peanuts. Serve with rice and lime wedges.
Tips
- Available from the long life milk aisle in supermarkets, creamy evaporated milk is made by heating milk to evaporate some of its water content. It keeps for several months on the pantry shelf. Use it as a lower fat substitute for cream in curries and pasta dishes.
- Microwave rice can be replaced with 1½ cups of cooked brown rice. Check labels on Massaman paste and choose the brand lowest in sodium.
