Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 14

4 large sweet potatoes(2 1/2 pounds), cut in half
cooking oil
2 tablespoons butter
1 cup finely diced yellow onion (about 1 medium onion)
1/2 cup finely diced celery, (about 2 celery stalks)
3 garlic cloves
1 teaspoon dried oregano
3/4 teaspoon ground ginger
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
3 cups chicken or vegetable stock
14 ounces canned coconut milk
Additional salt and black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Begin by roasting the sweet potatoes. Preheat oven to 400-degrees F. Line a baking sheet with baking parchment. Coat sweet potato halves with oil. Place down on lined baking sheet. Roast for 30 minutes at 400-degrees F. Discard peels. Transfer to a bowl and thoroughly mash.
  • While sweet potatoes are roasting, heat a large saucepan over medium heat. Add butter and allow to melt. Add diced onion and celery; cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes. Grate garlic cloves directly into pan. Sprinkle in dried oregano, ground ginger, ground cumin, salt and pepper. Cook, stirring constantly for 1 minute.
  • Stir in stock and coconut milk. Bring to a low simmer; continue to simmer on low heat until potatoes are ready.
  • Whisk in mashed sweet potatoes until combined. Salt and pepper to taste. For a smoother consistency, carefully transfer soup to a food processor or blender (work in batches if needed), and process until smooth. Be sure to vent the lid to avoid minor explosions. An immersion blender also works great!
  • Serve warm. If you so desire, garnish with chopped chives or green onion, greek yogurt or sour cream, toasted pecans or walnuts.

EASY CREAMY SWEET POTATO SOUP

This is one of my signature dishes. I made this recipe when I was 12 years old. If you want to use potato instead of sweet potato, replace the coconut milk with cow's milk. Add your favorite herbs and spices for added flavor, or just prepare it as stated.

SIMPLE SWEET POTATO SOUP



Simple Sweet Potato Soup image

This delicious soup has only 6 ingredients. It was given to me by my boyfriend's mom who adapted it from another recipe. It can be as thick or thin as you like, and I like it quite thick. To dress it up when serving, drizzle some cream on top and float a lime twist or slice of lime on top. Delicious hot or cold.
