Preparation

Sautee onions and garlic in olive oil for a minute or two, then add sweet potatoes, carrots and capsicum until onions are soft, about 5-6 minutes. Reduce heat to medium low, and add remaining ingredients, stirring to combine well. Simmer, partially covered and stirring occasionally, for 20-25 minutes, until flavours have mingled and vegetables are cooked. Serve with a dollop of sour cream or yoghurt if you like.
