3. Add the sweet potato, stir and bring to a gentle bubble. Cover with a lid, lower heat to medium-low and simmer for 3 minutes, then add the baby corn and continue to simmer for 5 minutes until the corn is tender but still crisp.

4. Stir in half the peanuts with half the basil and season with a pinch of salt and pepper to taste.

5. Serve the curry in a bowl on top of the rice with the remaining peanuts and basil sprinkled over the top.
