Tips for Success
Prepping Ahead: Prep all your ingredients before you start cooking to make the process smoother and more enjoyable.
Consistent Sizing: Dice the sweet potatoes evenly to ensure they cook at the same rate.
Balancing Heat: Adjust the amount of chili flakes based on your heat preference. Start with a smaller amount and add more if desired.
Stirring Spices: When adding spices, stir continuously to prevent burning and to release their full flavor.
Stock Quality: Use a good quality vegetable stock for the best flavor. Homemade stock can add a richer taste.
Coconut Milk: Use full-fat coconut milk for a creamy texture. Light coconut milk can be used but will result in a thinner stew.
Fresh Kale: Fresh kale should be bright green and crisp. Remove the tough stems before chopping.
