SWEET POTATO SOUP WITH GINGER, LEEK AND APPLE



Sweet Potato Soup With Ginger, Leek and Apple image

This was our favorite recipe test of the soup batch. Inspired by a sweet potato and apple purée I make every year for Thanksgiving, the soup also has savory overtones. For a spectacular finish, garnish each bowl with a squeeze of lime and a sprinkle of medium-hot chili powder or chipotle chili powder.

Time 1h10m

Yield 6 to 8 servings.

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 tablespoons canola oil or butter
2 leeks, white and light green parts only, cleaned and sliced
4 teaspoons minced fresh ginger
2 1/4 pounds orange sweet potatoes (like jewel yams or garnet yams), peeled and diced
1/2 pound Yukon gold or russet potatoes, peeled and diced
1 to 1 1/4 pounds tart apples, like Braeburn or Granny Smith, peeled, cored and diced
2 quarts water
Salt to taste
Fresh lime juice and medium-hot chili powder or chipotle chili powder for garnish

Steps:

  • Heat the oil or butter in a heavy soup pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the leek and cook, stirring, until it is tender, about 5 minutes. Add the ginger and stir together until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the sweet potatoes, regular potato, apples and water and bring to a simmer. Add salt to taste, reduce the heat, cover and simmer 45 minutes to an hour, until all of the ingredients are thoroughly tender.
  • Using an immersion blender, purée the soup (or you can use a regular blender, working in batches and placing a kitchen towel over the top to avoid splashing) until very smooth. Return to the pot, heat through and adjust salt. Ladle into bowls, squeeze a little lime juice and sprinkle a little chili powder over each serving and serve.
