While the sweet potato cooks, add the shallots, ginger, chillies and lemon grass plus 2 tablespoons of water to a mini blender or use a stick blender. Blitz until you have a paste. Heat the other tablespoon of grapeseed oil in a large sauté pan over a medium flame. Add the paste and cook for 3-4 minutes stirring often until it just starts to colour. Add the coconut milk, stirring until smooth, then add the fish sauce, juice of 1 lime and sugar along with the stock. Stir to combine, bring to the boil and then simmer for 15 minutes until slightly thickened. Once done, taste and adjust the flavour to your liking with additional lime juice, fish sauce and/or sugar.
