  • Before starting, preheat the oven to 425°F.
  • Wash and dry all produce.
  • Cut sweet potato into 1/2-inch pieces.
  • To a parchment-lined baking sheet, add sweet potatoes and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil. Season with salt and pepper, then toss to coat.
  • Roast in the middle of the oven for 18-20 min, stirring halfway through, until tender and golden.
  • Meanwhile, to a medium pot, add 1 1/4 cups (2 1/2 cups) water and 1/8 tsp (1/4 tsp) salt.
  • Cover and bring to a boil over high.

  • Cut tomatoes into 1/2-inch pieces.
  • Thinly slice green onions.
  • Using a strainer, rinse rice until water runs clear. 
  • To the boiling water, add rice. Reduce heat to low.
  • Cover and cook for 12-14 min, until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed.
  • Remove the pot from heat. Set aside, still covered.

  • Meanwhile, heat a large non-stick pan over high.
  • When hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then beef and onions.

If you've opted to get beef, reduce oil to 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp), then add beef to the pan. Cook beef in the same way the recipe instructs you to cook the turkey.** [Remove and discard excess fat, if desired.]

  • Flavor: Even those who don't typically enjoy curry found this dish delicious, with kids enjoying it too.
  • Ease of prep: Some found the initial appearance less appetizing, but the taste won them over.
  • Suggestions: Consider using dairy-free margarine as a successful butter substitute for those avoiding dairy.
