Lentil and Sweet Potato Curry

I like trying new recipes. And most things I make I feel more confidant about if I use a recipe, even if it's something I have made a jillion times. Just one of those quirks about me. One thing I prefer in a new recipe however is a picture. The recipe I tried today didn't have one so I was hesitant at first. I like to know ahead of time what my possible outcome will be, but today I decided to just go with it.

The first step is the same as yesterday's, onions and garlic mmmmm.

Next add the various potatoes, lentils and spices, bring them to a boil and simmer for 25 minutes.

Here's Kenney taking a whiff from our pot. He wasn't as excited about it once it was on his plate...

Norah and I playing while we waited.

Heres' the end product. I like all the colors on my plate. Curry isn't a very pretty dish so maybe that's why there wasn't a picture in the original posting I found online. I was pleased with the outcome. Next time I think I will add parsnips and maybe carrots in place of some of the potatoes. Overall a great curry dish that Mike and I enjoyed. Kenney chose not to try it this time. Norah had a bite and shook her head over and over again. I guess that means more leftover's for me!

Here's the recipe I found online
