As soon as cold weather hits, I get an overwhelming urge to sit on the couch, wrapped in a blanket, with a bowl of soup in my hand for each and every meal. It doesn’t really matter what kind of soup it is. If it’s hot and it’s tasty, I will happily slurp my way into catatonic soup bliss. That being said, there are certain recipes that make it into the “make, eat, repeat” file. This Coconut Curried Sweet Potato Soup by Tasty Kitchen member Jenna falls into that category.
The curry flavors add a depth to this soup, balancing the sweetness of the sweet potato perfectly. Since it is made with coconut milk rather than cream, it can be considered vegan. You will probably want leftovers and, luckily, this soup recipe can easily be doubled.
Let’s move on to this amazing recipe.
Preheat the oven to 400ºF. Poke the sweet potato all over with the tines of a fork. Bake the sweet potato on a baking tray for 45 minutes or until very tender.
Remove from the oven and let cool. Once cooled, peel the sweet potato.
Cut the sweet potato into chunks and place it in the bowl of a food processor.
Add the coconut milk …
Vegetable broth …
Salt, curry powder …
Garam masala and cayenne pepper.
Blend until smooth.
Transfer the mixture to a saucepan set over medium heat and cook until heated through. Garnish with chopped cilantro and serve.
