Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 large sweet potatoes
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 medium, diced yellow onion
- 1 large, diced carrot
- 3 minced garlic cloves
- 4 cups vegetable broth
- 1 can (13.5 ounces) coconut milk
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon ground coriander
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons, chopped cilantro
Instructions
Peel and cut the sweet potatoes into 1-inch cubes. Set aside.
In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
Add the diced onion and carrot, and sauté for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the onion is translucent.
Stir in the minced garlic, cooking for another 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the cubed sweet potatoes, vegetable broth, ground cumin, ground coriander, ground cinnamon, salt, and black pepper to the pot.
Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and cover the pot. Simmer for 20 minutes or until the sweet potatoes are tender.
Remove the pot from the heat and allow it to cool slightly.
Using an immersion blender, puree the soup until smooth. Alternatively, you can use a countertop blender, working in batches if necessary. Be cautious of the hot liquid.
Return the pureed soup to the pot, stir in the coconut milk, and heat the soup over low heat for an additional 5 minutes.
Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
Serve the soup hot, garnished with chopped cilantro.
