RED CURRY MUSSELS AND ROASTED SWEET POTATOES

Steps:

• Prepare the sweet potatoes: Heat oven to 450 degrees. Peel the sweet potatoes, and cut them lengthwise into slender wedges. Put them in a large bowl, and toss them with coconut oil to coat. Season generously with salt and pepper. Transfer to a rimmed baking sheet and spread out in a single layer. Bake, uncovered for 15 minutes, then reduce heat to 400 degrees. Bake for 30 to 40 minutes until tender with a crisp exterior. Before serving, sprinkle with cumin and cayenne.
• While sweet potatoes are baking, make the curry: Put vegetable oil in a Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed pot with a lid over medium-high heat. Add onions and cook until lightly browned and softened, about 8 minutes, stirring frequently.
