AFRICAN CURRY WITH BROWN RICE

Ingredients

1 cup

brown rice

1 can

plum tomatoes, with their liquid (35 ounces)

14 ounces

unpeeled sweet potatoes, cut into 1/2-inch-thick slices

0.5 cup

sliced onion

4 cloves

garlic, crushed and peeled

2 tbs

curry powder

pitted prunes

1 cup

coarsely chopped scallions

0.5 cup

chopped fresh coriander

2 tbs

peanut butter

0.25 tsp

salt

This filling entrée, adapted from West African cooking, is a nutritional standout. One serving supplies about the half the recommended daily fiber intake, twice the recommended amount of beta carotene, nearly half the potassium you need each day and more than your daily requirement of vitamin C.

Preparation

Bring 2 1/2 cups of water to a boil in a medium-size saucepan.
Stir in the rice, cover, reduce the heat to low and cook 45 minutes, or until the rice is tender and the water is completely absorbed.
Meanwhile, place the tomatoes and their liquid, the potatoes, onion, garlic and curry powder in a large saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer 20
minutes, or until the potatoes are tender.
Stir in the remaining ingredients, and cook, stirring occasionally, 10 minutes.

Additional information:

Divide the rice among 4 plates and top with the curry.
