Best Coconut Yam And Leek Soup Recipes

PUMPKIN, SWEET POTATO, LEEK AND COCONUT MILK SOUP

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a soup pot over medium heat. Add the onion and leek, and cook for a few minutes, until soft. Stir in the pumpkin, sweet potato, and vegetable broth. Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce heat to low.
• Simmer for about 15 minutes, until vegetables are tender. Mash vegetables coarsely using a potato masher. Stir in the coconut milk, season with salt and pepper, and serve.

YAM & LEEK SOUP

Steps:

• 1. Saute the onions with the palm oil in a large sauce pan or soup pot over medium heat for a few minutes. Stir frequently to prevent the onions from browning or burning, just soften them.
• 2. Add the apple, garlic and leeks to the pan and saute for approximately 5 minutes to allow everything to get soft.
• 3. Sprinkle in the cumin, nutmeg and sage and stir in well.
• 4. Add the water and yams. Bring to a boil and simmer for about 20 minutes until the yams are soft.
• 5. Remove the soup from the heat and slowly mix in the coconut milk and give it a good stir. Season with salt and pepper.
• 6. Puree the soup right in the pot with a stick blender, it's so easy to do it this way. Serve in a bowl and sprinkle a little parsley on top to garnish.
• 7. Serve either hot or cold. I like it both ways. It's good the next day since it gives the seasonings a chance to permeate through the soup.
• 8. Enjoy!
