Time 50m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 sweet potato, peeled
1 teaspoon butter
½ medium onion, chopped
1 clove garlic, minced
1 cup chicken stock
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
½ teaspoon brown sugar
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes

Steps:

  • Place sweet potato into a large pot and cover with salted water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until barely tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Drain. Let cool until safe to handle. Cut into medium pieces.
  • Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add onion and garlic. Cook and stir until onion is translucent and slightly browned, about 5 minutes. Pour in chicken stock and bring to a boil. Add the sweet potato, cumin, ginger, black pepper, brown sugar, cinnamon, and red pepper flakes. Cook until flavors come together and sweet potato is soft, about 10 minutes.
  • Puree soup with an immersion blender until smooth.
