Olive oil for cooking
Instructions
- Add a drizzle of olive oil to a large pot on medium heat. Add the onion, garlic, ginger and pinch of salt, and stir well to combine. Let it cook for 5 minutes until the onion becomes transparent. Add the apple, stir, and cook for another 5 minutes.
- Add the tomatoes with a pinch of salt, and stir well to combine. Cook for another 7-10 minutes, until the tomatoes and apple are soft.
- Pour the butter beans, green beans, coconut cream, curry powder and ground pepper. Stir well to combine. Add salt to taste. Cover with a lid and cook for 10 minutes.
- Put the spinach into the pot, combine with the rest of the ingredients, and cover with a lid. Cook for another 2-4 minutes more, and it's ready!
Notes
Important!! Before adding the butter beans, make sure that the tomatoes and apple are quite soft! You want the chunks of tomatoes and apple to blend with the sauce.
Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4-5 days. Or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
