Caribbean Sweet Potato Curry With Kale

It's Tuesday night, and you're so far from wasting away in Margaritaville it's not even funny. Here's an easy supper that will whisk you away to the tropics in the time it takes to open a can of coconut milk. Warm turmeric and ginger get cozy with slowly simmered onions, garlic, and tomatoes before you toss in hearty chunks of sweet potatoes and handfuls of chopped kale. Start a pot of rice before you get started - once eveything's steaming and fragrant, serve with wedges of juicy limes and jerk-marinated tofu or chicken for a full Caribbean spread. Pass the cold Red Stripe!
