Crockpot Sweet Potato & Corn Stew
Ingredients:
- 1 tbs. olive oil

- 2 tbs. fresh ginger, diced small
- 1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and diced small
- 2 garlic cloves, diced small
- 1 cup frozen corn kernels
- 2 1/2 tsp. curry powder
- 1 (13oz) can coconut milk
- 1 tsp cornstarch
- 1 (14oz) can vegetable broth
- 1 1/2 tbs. soy sauce plus more to taste
- 4 sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into cubes
- Hot cooked jasmine white rice
Directions:
- Heat oil in a large skillet oven medium heat. Add onion, ginger, jalapeño, and garlic. Cook, stirring occasionally until the onion softens, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in curry powder.
- Whisk coconut milk and cornstarch together in the crockpot.
- Add broth and soy sauce and then potatoes.
- Top potatoes with coconut milk and cook on low for 5 to 6 hours or until the sweet potatoes are tender.

- Add corn 15 minutes before serving and adjust seasoning to taste with additional soy sauce.
- Spoon oven rice and serve hot.
