Instructions
Before starting, preheat the oven to 425°F. Wash and dry all produce. Cut sweet potatoes into 1/2-inch pieces. Add sweet potatoes and 1 tbsp oil to a parchment-lined baking sheet. (NOTE: For 4 ppl, use 2 baking sheets, with 1 tbsp oil per sheet.) Season with salt and pepper, then toss to coat. Roast in the middle of the oven, flipping halfway through, until tender, 18-20 min. (NOTE: For 4 ppl, roast in the top and middle of the oven, rotating sheets halfway through.)
While sweet potatoes roast, peel, then finely grate ginger. Cut tomatoes into 1/2-inch pieces. Roughly chop cilantro. Using a strainer, rinse lentils until water runs clear.
Add 1 1/4 cups water (dbl for 4 ppl) to a medium pot. Bring to a boil over high heat. Once boiling, add rice, then reduce heat to low. Cover and cook until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed, 12-14 min. Remove the pot from heat. Set aside, still covered.
While rice cooks, heat a large non-stick pan over medium heat. (NOTE: For 4 ppl, use a large pot.) When hot, add 1 tbsp oil (dbl for 4 ppl), then tomatoes and ginger. Cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, 4-6 min. Add curry paste and Indian Spice Mix. Cook, stirring often, until fragrant, 1 min. Season with salt and pepper.
Add broth concentrates, coconut milk, lentils and 1 1/2 cups water (2 1/2 cups for 4 ppl) to the same pan. Bring to a boil over high heat. Once boiling, reduce heat to medium. Cook, stirring often, until lentils are tender, 12-15 min. (NOTE: If needed, thin out curry with 1-2 tbsp water.)
When lentils are tender, add sweet potatoes and spinach to curry. Season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring often, until spinach wilts, 1-2 min. Fluff rice with a fork. Season with salt, then stir in half the cilantro. Divide rice between plates. Top with lentil and sweet potato curry. Sprinkle crispy shallots and remaining cilantro over top.
