Nutritional values

For veggie fans, beans are especially recommended because they contain a lot of blood-building iron and muscle-strengthening protein. The high beta-carotene content in sweet potatoes can slow down the negative effects of oxidative stress on our bodies.

The spicy curry can be used wonderfully for Meal Prep - so you can enjoy this delicious dish again the next day.

Peel the onion, garlic and ginger. Halve the onion and cut it into strips, finely dice garlic and ginger. Halve chili pepper lengthwise, remove seeds, wash and chop. Peel the sweet potato, wash, and cut into 1-inch cubes. Clean carrots, peel, cut in half lengthwise if necessary, and cut into pieces. Halve bell pepper, remove seeds, wash, and cut into strips.
