Roast & prep
- Dice the sweet potatoes into 2cm chunks (peel optional). Place onto the lined baking tray and toss with 1 tbsp oil and a pinch of salt and pepper. Roast for 25-30 mins, until soft and golden
- Peel and halve the onion, then thinly slice. Roughly chop the coriander
Start the base
- Heat the large saucepan with 1 tsp oil on medium heat. Once hot, add the onion and cook for 6-7 mins, until starting to caramelise. Season with salt and pepper

Final touches
- Add the peanut butter to the now empty measuring jug with 2 tbsp hot water. Mix until it forms a smooth paste
- Stir the peanut butter mixture and sugar snaps into the curry and simmer for 2-3 mins, until the sauce has thickened and the veg is soft
