Tikka Chicken and Root Vegetables Curry with Fried Sweet Potatoes

---

---

I first tried this dish as a ready meal for lunch and it actually was delicious and healthy. It didn’t have beetroot or broccoli. I thought to myself I can make this with a few changes. Adding the beetroot makes the curry sweeter.

This is a great curry to have if you are lacking in Vitamin B and iron. Moreover, the spices protect you for the colds and flu that are lurking about in the winter. If you are vegetarian or vegan you can adapt the dish by omitting the chicken and greek yogurt. I am actually enjoying making food and incorporating these root vegetables.
