Sweet Potato Lentil Stew

1 onion
5 cloves garlic
3 sweet potatoes
2-3 carrots
1 cup lentils
1 package button mushrooms
vegetable broth (follow directions for enough for 4 cups water)
curry powder
ginger powder
4 cups water
salt to taste
2T olive oil

Heat olive oil, saute garlic and onions with ginger and curry until onions are clear and slightly browned. Add all other ingredients, except mushrooms. Simmer for 30 -45 minutes. Add mushrooms and cook for 10 additional minutes. Salt to taste

I like to serve this dish with corn bread but it's great alone too.

I don't measure the curry and ginger, i'd say maybe a teaspoon of ginger and 2-3 teaspoons of curry. Play around with the amounts for a taste you like.
