  3. Add water, coconut cream, sweet potato and chick peas and mix well
  4. Bring to the boil then reduce heat and leave to simmer, lid off, for about 30 minutes or until sweet potato is just tender
  5. Stir occasionally
  6. Add capsicum and sprouts and stir till just heated through (keep the sprouts and capsicum crunchy)

Notes

I leave the skin on the sweet potato if it’s organic as there are so many nutrients in and just below the skin. It helps keep the chunks together as well.
