Sweet Potato and Peanut Soup image

This spicy, tasty soup is something a bit different and easy to assemble. The bright orange-fleshed sweet potato is not only attractive to the eye, but tastes beautiful. We loved it when my brother served it and begged the recipe from him. For best results, use Thai-style sweet chili sauce.

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 tablespoon vegetable oil
2 lbs sweet potatoes, peeled and chopped into 1 ich pieces (the orange-fleshed variety)
2 large onions, peeled and chopped
2 cloves garlic, crushed
1 tablespoon ground cumin
8 cups chicken stock
1 1/4 cups crunchy peanut butter
1 tablespoon chili sauce

  • Heat oil, and saute onions in a heavy-based stockpot.
  • Add garlic and cumin, and stir-fry 30 seconds over medium heat.
  • Add chopped sweet potato, cover and cook for 10 minutes over low heat, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.

  • Add peanut butter and chili sauce, and mix into the soup thoroughly.
  • Simmer uncovered for 20 to 30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are tender.
  • Puree with a hand-held blender, such as a Bamix, until the sweet potato is almost smooth.

I'm not a huge fan of peanuts, but I really enjoyed this soup. The peanuts added a nice richness and creaminess.

This soup was a little too sweet for my taste. I think I would have preferred it with less sugar.
