Sweet Potato Curry With Onions, Peppers, & Tomatoes

This sweet potato curry is delicious and quick. It is a versatile side dish to accompany your favorite main dishes. I like using both the cream-colored and orange fleshed sweet potatoes. And I used one of each color of the bell peppers - yellow, orange, red, and green.

Stir in the curry leaves, green chiles, onions and bell peppers along with the turmeric and a pinch of the salt; cook stirring until softened a little.

Add the tomatoes and the sweet potatoes along with the rest of the salt; stir well, cover and cook over low to medium heat stirring occasionally until cooked.

Turn off the heat and let sit for about 5 minutes. 

Serve hot with a sprinkle of the cilantro leaves. Delicious with any breads, rice dishes, dosa, or kichdi.
