1 onion, finely chopped
2 tsp olive oil
1 garlic clove, finely chopped
1 tbsp curry powder
500g sweet potatoes, chopped into cubes

Put the lentils in a pan with 3 cups of water. Bring to the boil. Skim off any scum, turn down the heat and simmer for 20 minutes.

Meanwhile, sauté the onion in the olive oil until soft. Add the garlic and curry powder and cook for a few more minutes. Add the potatoes and cook for 5 minutes, stirring constantly.
