I'm not a big fan of sweet potatoes, but I really enjoyed this soup. The spices really balance out the sweetness of the potatoes.

This soup is a great make-ahead meal. I made a big batch on the weekend and then had it for lunch all week. It reheats really well.

I love the addition of coconut milk in this soup. It gives it a creamy texture and a subtle sweetness that really enhances the flavor of the sweet potatoes.

This soup is a great way to use up leftover sweet potatoes. I had some that were starting to go bad, and this soup was the perfect way to use them up.
