Categories     Soup/Stew     Potato     Appetizer     Christmas Eve

Yield 6 8 ox bowls

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 tablespoon canola oil
2 cups chopped onion (about 1 large)
2 cloves garlic
1 tablespoon thyme
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground allspice
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon sugar
1 pound sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch cubes
4 cups rich chicken stock or broth (if using store-bought stock, add a chicken bouillon cube)
1 cup evaporated milk (whole or fat-free)
1/2 cup heavy cream (or whole or fat-free evaporated milk)
1/4 cup dry sherry (optional)
1/2 cup heavy cream, whipped, for garnish (optional)
2 tablespoons chopped chives, for garnish (optional)

Steps:

  • In a large saucepan over medium-high heat, heat the oil. Add the onion, garlic, thyme, cinnamon, allspice, cloves, salt, pepper and sugar and cook until the vegetables are soft and lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Add the sweet potatoes, stock or broth, milk and cream. Cook with bubbles just forming on the surface until the potatoes are soft, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove from the heat and puree the soup until smooth. This can be done in the pot with a handheld stick (immersion) blender or in a blender or food processor. (If using a blender or food processor, strain the soup, puree the solids and add the hot liquid back slowly in small batches, pulsing between each addition.) Adjust the thickness by adding more stock, milk or cream. Add sherry, if desired, stirring to combine. Serve in individual bowls with whipped cream or chives or both, if desired.
