Grilled Sweet Potato Wedges with Curry Ketchup
Now let’s talk about that curry ketchup. I smothered it on everything on my plate, including the filet mignon. Why haven’t I made this before? I am a huge curry fan and in England, we will put curry sauce on just about anything and this ketchup is perfect for putting on just about anything. Forget boring old tomato ketchup, this is newest thing for me. It’s tangy, it’s slightly sweet and you get a little bit of heat on the back end, not too much, but just enough. Maybe I’ll incorporate it into an amazing burger recipe, hmmm…
