Sweet potato curry


 Serve on rice. I added 2 apples, some golden raisins..,And some fresh cauliflower to mine. Note: the ingredients below were a tad too hot for me so next time use less. This was way less than the original called for🤪.This was way too hot for us..

DIRECTIONS 

In my largest iron skillet cook onions and tomatoes for about 8 minutes until onions are tender and any leftover liquid in tomatoes is evaporated.
