Curried Beef and Sweet Potato Bowl

Prep: 4 minutes 

Cook: 13 minutes 

Serves: 4

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 tbsp vegetable oil
• 1 brown onion, finely chopped
• 3 cloves garlic, crushed
• 500g lean beef mince
• 400g orange sweet potato, peeled, cut into 1.5cm cubes
• 3 tsp curry powder
• 2 tsp cornflour
• 2 tbsp mango chutney
• 1 cup chicken stock
• 1/2 cup frozen peas
• 4 plain naan bread
• 2 tsp chopped fresh coriander leaves, plus extra coriander sprigs to serve
• Plain reduced-fat Greek-style yoghurt, to serve
• Lemon wedges, to serve

That's what we call instant weeknight satisfaction.

Method:

Step 1 - Heat 2 teaspoons of oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Cook onion and 2/3 of the garlic for 3 minutes or until onion softens.

Step 2 - Add mince. Cook, breaking up and mincing with a wooden spoon, for 3 to 4 minutes or until browned. Add potato and curry powder, then cook for 1 minute or until fragrant. Add cornflour, chutney and stock. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer for 5 minutes, adding peas in the last 3 minutes of cooking or until the mixture has thickened slightly.

3. Meanwhile, preheat the grill on medium-high. Place naan on a large baking tray. Combine chopped coriander with remaining garlic and oil in a small bowl. Season, then brush each side of the naan with the oil mixture.

4. Grill naan for 1 to 2 minutes each side or until golden and toasted. Dollop mince with yoghurt, top with extra coriander, then serve with warm naan and lemon wedges.
