- 1 medium red onion, cut into 3/4-inch chunks
- 1 bell pepper, cut into 3/4-inch chunks
- 3 tablespoons red curry paste
- 2 tablespoons natural unsweetened peanut butter
- One 13-ounce can full-fat unsweetened coconut milk
- 1 tablespoon raw or light brown sugar (in a pinch, you can use maple syrup or white sugar)

- 3 cups bite-size broccoli florets
- 1 to 2 tablespoons lime juice, to taste
- Cooked brown rice, for serving

Instructions
- Heat 1 tablespoon coconut oil in a large high-sided pan over medium-high heat and add the onions and peppers. Cook until they’re browned in places, stirring once or twice, about 5 minutes.
- Stir in 3 tablespoons curry paste and cook for 1 minute. Then add 2 tablespoons peanut butter and stir to incorporate. Add 1 can coconut milk, 1 tablespoon sugar, 1 tablespoon soy sauce, 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon, and the chopped potato. Cover tightly with a lid and bring to a boil. Simmer gently until the potatoes are cooked through, stirring occasionally, about 15 minutes.

- Turn the heat off and season with 1 to 2 tablespoons lime juice.
