1. In a wok or large skillet, saute onion, ginger and cumin seeds in the coconut oil over medium heat until the onion is softened and beginning to turn translucent, about 3 minutes.
2. Then add all of the spices and root veggies and saute about 8 minutes before adding 1/4 cup of the coconut milk.
3. Continue cooking a couple of minutes, allowing the coconut milk to evaporate, then add an additional 1/4 cup of the coconut milk.
4. Continue to cook about 5 minutes.
5. Then add another 1/4 cup of the coconut milk.
6. By now the root veggies should be softening up.
7. Test the sweet potato by biting into it.
8. If its still not cooked all the way, continue sauteing.
9. Cook until the sweet potato is soft, but slightly al dente in the middle (avoid cooking the vegetables to the point that they turn mushy).
10. Once the vegetables are finished cooking, add the remaining coconut milk.
11. Stir to incorporate the coconut milk.
12. Allow it to come to a gentle boil and cook a few more minutes, allowing it to thicken slightly.
13. Remove from heat and serve over rice with freshly chopped basil on top.
14. Note: Add a chopped chicken breast and/or shrimp for added protein.
