- Preheat the oven to 240°C/220°C fan/gas mark 9.
- Chop the sweet potato into 2cm chunks (peeling optional).
- Add the sweet potato to a large (lined) baking tray.
- Toss with salt, pepper and a drizzle of oil. Spread out in a single layer.
- When the oven is hot, roast on the top shelf until golden, 20-30 mins. Turn halfway through.
- Pour 300ml cold salted water (double for 4p) into a medium pot with a tight-fitting lid.
- Stir in the rice and bring to the boil.
- Once boiling, lower the heat to medium, cover with the lid and cook for 12 mins.
- Remove the pot from the heat.
- Keep covered for another 12 mins or until ready to serve (the rice will continue to cook in its own steam).
- Peel and grate the ginger. Use a teaspoon to easily scrape away the peel.
- Roughly chop the coriander (stalks and all).
- Halve the chilli and discard the core and seeds. Finely chop.
- Halve the baby corn lengthways.
- Zest and quarter the lemon.
- When the sweet potato has 10 mins of cooking time to go, place a pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil.
- Once hot, add the baby corn and stir-fry for 3-4 mins. Season with salt and pepper.
- Add the Thai spice, ginger and chilli (use less if you don't like spice) and fry until fragrant, 1 min.
- Pop in the red Thai paste, coconut milk and 50ml water (double for 4p). Simmer for 2-3 mins.
- Stir the roasted sweet potato through the curry.
- Add a squeeze of lemon juice.
- Stir in a splash of water if the curry is too thick.
- Season to taste with salt, pepper and more lemon juice if desired.
- Mix the lemon zest into the rice, fluffing it up as you go.
- Divide the rice between bowls and top with the sweet potato curry.
- Finish with a sprinkling of coriander.
- Serve any remaining lemon wedges alongside for squeezing over.
