This hearty one-pot stew features sweet potato, chickpeas, and spinach in a creamy coconut curry base.

Cooking Steps

Prep
1
  • Wash and dry produce.

  • Trim and thinly slice scallions, separating whites from greens. Peel and quarter sweet potato lengthwise; cut crosswise into ½-inch-thick quarter-moons. Peel and mince or grate ginger

Start Stew
2
  • Heat a drizzle of oil in a large, heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high heat. Add scallion whites, sweet potato, ginger, Turkish Spice Blend, and curry powder. Cook, stirring occasionally, until combined and fragrant, 2-3 minutes.

  • Add chickpeas and their liquid, veggie stock concentrate, mushroom stock concentrate, tomato paste, Vidalia onion paste, 1 tsp sugar, ¼ tsp salt, and pepper (2 tsp sugar and ½ tsp salt for 4 servings). Cook, stirring occasionally, until coated, 1-2 minutes.

  • Stir in 1 cup water (2 cups for 4) and bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened, 3-5 minutes.

  • Thoroughly shake coconut milk in container before opening; stir into pot. Cook, stirring occasionally, until stew has thickened and sweet potato is tender, 15-20 minutes more.

  • Cut olive oil toast on a diagonal to create triangles.

Finish & Serve
4

Review summary

Updated on Mar 2026
  • Flavor: Many raved about the delicious, complex flavors and perfect spice level; some found it too spicy or salty.
  • Ease of prep: Quick and simple one-pot meal, though a few noted sweet potatoes took longer to soften than expected.
  • Suggestions: Consider serving over rice instead of toast; add extra veggies like mushrooms or broccoli for more bulk 🍲.
  • Portions: Some found it filling, while others wanted larger portions; adding rice or an extra sweet potato helped stretch the meal.
  • Customization: Try adding shrimp or chicken for non-vegans; a squeeze of lime brightens the flavors nicely.

Delicious spices, but it was a one-person amount of food for two people. It seemed like maybe some sweet potatoes and chickpeas had been left out by accident, because the amount of liquid and spices would have been enough for twice the amount of food. I bulked it up with potatoes I happened to have in the house and then it was good.

Really loved this. The timing worked well across the board: the sweet potatoes were perfectly done, and the soup was well-spiced. Will definitely make again.

This was good. I only used one tsp of the curry powder though and it was plenty of spice. Also it took almost twice the time to soften the sweet potato. Not a quick meal but tasty. Even better with rice.

Wow! This was so fabulously delicious! I would love to see it on the menu again. If I could make one suggestion, I'd say to add a packet of plain yogurt just in case someone wants to tone down the strength of the spice.

Great comfort food...but could have used another sweet potato. Your prices are rising and portions are shrinking

Love the spice blends that come with this. I have to adjust the recipe and add more veggies as there are never enough.

This was sooo tasty and the flavors were amazing. If you sold these spices I would definitely purchase them and still get the meal again!

Too spicy - should have had a warning. The toast was the best part, otherwise the taste was average, not outstanding
