Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium sweet potatoes
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 large yellow onion
- 3 large garlic cloves
- 1 tablespoon ginger
- 4 cups vegetable broth
- 1 cup coconut milk
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro leaves
Instructions
Peel and chop the sweet potatoes into 1-inch cubes.
Finely chop the onion, garlic, and ginger.
In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
Add the chopped onion and sauté for about 5 minutes until it becomes translucent.
Stir in the chopped garlic and ginger, cooking for another 2 minutes until fragrant.
Add the sweet potatoes to the pot along with the vegetable broth, bringing the mixture to a boil.
Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and simmer for 20 minutes or until sweet potatoes are tender.
Use an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth. Alternatively, carefully transfer the soup to a traditional blender, blending in batches if necessary.
Return the pureed soup to the pot if needed, and stir in the coconut milk, cumin, cinnamon, salt, and black pepper.
Heat the soup over medium-low heat until all the ingredients are combined and warmed through, about 5 minutes.
Stir in the lime juice just before serving for a touch of brightness.
Garnish each bowl with freshly chopped cilantro leaves and serve hot.
