This was so yummy, delicious, scrummy!!!OK I think you get my point. The smells whilst it was cooking were heavenly and I had the family keep coming out to the kitchen to see what was cooking. I made with all the ingredients listed I just changed some of the amounts, like adding more garlic, upping both the cumin and coriander. I also added some seeds from the chili as I love a little heat to a dish. I buy coconut cream in a 200ml carton and it is not very strong on flavour so added this instead of just the 2 tablespoons listed, I thought it would be quite watery otherwise and then topped the liquid up with 370ml of water. We all really loved the flavours in the dish and the hubby kept saying how it reminded him of the Caribbean. A definite keeper Karen, tastes divine and smells so wonderful..

Made this recipe in 2 half-batches, so that I could add the prawns to just half of it for myself & my other half & without the prawns for my veggie son & DIL! Took a little doing to make it just right, but it worked & everyone was extremely pleased with what they were served! I did use the dark orange sweet potatoes & as with other dishes like this I did serve it with a brown rice-&-peas combo! A lot of flavors came together here, but I really liked these potatoes with the hint of coconut! Thanks for sharing a very nice recipe! [Tagged, made & reviewed in Please Review My Recipe]

Very nice flavor and presentation. I felt the amount of pineapple that seeped in from serving it as shown was sufficient, but MDW added some of the chopped pineapple and liked it even more. Only deviation from the recipe was that I tossed in a couple of whole jalapenos with slits in them, and it heated it up just right.
