This delicious curry is one of our favorites for dinner. It is filled with plant goodness, and Japanese Yams make it even more sweet and amazing. I admit that cooking plant based meals pushes me to be more creative, and it takes more planning and prepping, but I love it. And to have all these fresh organic ingredients available to us even during this quarantine, I just feel so privileged and grateful.
