Butternut and Sweet Potato Curry
This is a rambunctiously vibrant curry, both to look at and eat. It is rich, sweet and hearty, with tomatoes providing a balancing acidity and the curry paste bringing uncompromising fire. I like the drama of black Venus rice with this, but by all means serve any rice you want alongside.
