Anna's Family Kitchen was inspired by my love of food and desire to feed my family healthy, home cooked wholesome meals that are beautifully presented and appealing but don’t require hours of prep in the kitchen.
Chicken & Sweet Potato Curry
This Vietnamese curry originates from an ancient old cookbook of mine, Far Flung Floyd. Quick and easy I’ve played with the original recipe over the years. Floyd deep fried the sweet potatoes. I’ve just added them diced to the sauce (far simpler) and healthier too!
