Cooking Steps
• Wash and dry produce. • Core, deseed, and dice bell pepper into ½-inch pieces. Peel sweet potato if desired, then dice into ½-inch pieces. Peel and grate or mince garlic and ginger. Halve, peel, and finely dice half the onion (whole onion for 4 servings). Zest and quarter lime. • In a small bowl, combine cornstarch with 1 TBSP water (2 TBSP for 4). Set aside.
• Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add bell pepper and sweet potato; season with ¼ tsp salt (½ tsp for 4 servings) and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned, 4-6 minutes. • Stir in cauliflower rice until incorporated. Transfer to a plate.
• Heat a drizzle of oil in same pot over medium-high heat. Add garlic, ginger, and onion. Cook, stirring, until fragrant, 1-2 minutes.
• Add turkey* to pot with aromatics. Cook, breaking up meat into pieces, until browned and cooked through, 4-6 minutes. Season with curry powder, ¼ tsp salt (½ tsp for 4 servings), and pepper.
Swap in chicken for turkey. (No need to break up meat into pieces!)
• Thoroughly shake coconut milk in container before opening. • Transfer veggies to pot with turkey mixture. (TIP: If cornstarch in mixture has settled, give it another stir now.) Stir in stock concentrates, cornstarch mixture, coconut milk, chili sauce, 1½ cups water (3 cups for 4 servings), and 1 TBSP sugar (2 TBSP for 4). Bring to a boil, then reduce to a low simmer. Cook until flavors meld and sweet potato is tender, 4-5 minutes. TIP: If soup seems too thick, add more water a splash at a time as needed.
• Stir juice from two lime wedges (four wedges for 4 servings) into soup. Season with salt and pepper to taste. • Divide between bowls. Garnish with lime zest to taste. Serve with any remaining lime wedges on the side.
Chicken is fully cooked when internal temperature reaches 165°.

Reviews from our home cooks
We were skeptical about the sweet potato in this dish, but everything was very delicious. Our soup ended up very thick, but it was better that way. We added jasmine rice to our meal and it was more filling and complete. The curry was the perfect consistency to be paired with rice. I just wish there was more of the chicken. Also, we did find it odd that this is a "One-pot" dish, but the recipe called for removal of the vegetables at one point to be added back in later. Such an action is not befitting of the term "One-pot" to me.
Just so yummy and amazing! The lime is key (would be happy with a 2nd lime). I also didn't add all the curry powder and am in love with this dish! Also the cauliflower rice and sweet potato make it healthier which is something I always look at when selecting my meals (low/less carbs/ingredients with nutrient benefits like sweet potato vs regular potato)
This recipe had a lot to chop up but man oh man, it was worth it!! SO DELICIOUS! Unique flavors and in my opinion, you have to make this yourself or you will have trouble finding it. (At least at any Thai restaurants around here) Very comforting and I feel that this would have tasted so good when I had Covid.
I was accidentally sent two of these so the second time I made it I made some modifications. I did not put in the red pepper or the cauliflower rice. Instead, I added larger chunks of onion and shredded carrot, which was an idea I got from another recipe of yours. I definitely enjoyed the modified version a lot more. Oh, I also added cilantro at the end and that made it taste a lot better too. Overall, a great dish!
I would omit the added sugar since the sweet potato makes the soup sweet. I would include chilli flakes or cayenne pepper to balance out the flavors. Also, the cauliflower rice wasn't necessary.
We always love the curry meals, whether it's the soup or the rice dishes. This one was really neat with the cauliflower rice instead of rice. However, I will say we always double the curry powder. We must just like it extra Curry flavored!
Absolutely loved this recipe. The only thing I would do differently next time is less sugar, I felt it pulled away from ginger and curry and citrus.
This looked like a very simple 'soup'; but turned out to be both rich in taste, and quite filling, both! And I loved the simplicity of the directions and the ease it was to follow them, and how it came out. I did make ONE substitution-I used fat free milk, in place of water.
We loved this soup! There was enough for 4. Very flavorful. Only thing was that there was no corn starch in the pack. But I have it in my cupboard.
This is one of the best things ever from my hf box. Thank you!!!!!!!!! Absolutely delicious. So clever with the cauli rice too.
