Step by Step guide

Step 1

Blend lemongrass, ginger, and garlic in a blender.

Step 2

Heat oil in a heavy pot over medium heat. Add the lemongrass mixture and sauté, stirring frequently, for about 5 minutes until golden; season with salt. Add the curry paste and tomato paste, sautéing, stirring for about 3 minutes until darkened. Add tomatoes and simmer, stirring, until thickened for about 5 minutes. Pour in coconut milk, season with salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and let simmer, stirring frequently, for 20-25 minutes until the curry thickens and all ingredients are infused with each other's flavors.

Step 3

Add sweet potato and carrots, adding enough water to cover the vegetables. Partially cover with a lid and simmer until the carrots are tender, about 10-15 minutes. Add shallots and simmer until the potatoes and shallots are soft, about 15-20 minutes.
