Sweet potatoes are frequently used in curry dishes. I added vegetables I had in my crisper (red pepper, green beans and summer squash) to create a colorful dish; use whatever you have on hand. The jalapeno adds flavorful heat, but can be omitted if preferred. No rules, just yum. Mmm my new favorite curry in a hurry dish.
