Ingredients

  • 2 Tbsp.

    extra-virgin olive oil 

  • 2

    carrots, peeled and diced 

  • 2

    celery stalks, diced 

  • 1

    yellow onion, diced

  • 2 tsp.

    fine sea salt 

  • 2 Tbsp.

    curry powder

  • 1

    sweet potato (yam), unpeeled, cut 1/2-inch dice

  • 1

    can (13.5 ounces) unsweetened coconut milk

Directions

    1. Step 1Heat the oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the carrots, celery, onion, and salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened but not brown, about 5 minutes. Add the curry powder and cook, stirring continuously, for 30 seconds, being careful not to let the spices brown.
