You’re not imagining it, Chef! Ginger contains something called gingerols, which physically increases your body’s temperature. By using this ingredient in a stew, you will feel warm & fuzzy from the inside out. Layers of ginger, sweet potato, bell peppers, kale & lentils are blanketed with a coconut cream & winter special spice mix. Spooned over brown basmati rice.

  1. READY THE RICE

    Place the rinsed rice in a pot with 150ml of salted water. Cover with a lid and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer until the water has been absorbed, 8-10 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside to steam, 8-10 minutes. Fluff with a fork and cover.

    Place a pot (with a lid) over medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the diced Onion, the grated Ginger (to taste), the pepper slices, and the sweet potato chunks until the onions are soft, 4-5 minutes (shifting occasionally). Add the spice mix and fry until fragrant, 1-2 minutes.

  3. MAKE IT CREAMY
