Time 1h5m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 ½ pounds orange-fleshed sweet potatoes
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 onion, chopped
1 (2 inch) piece fresh ginger root, thinly sliced
1 tablespoon red curry paste
1 (15 ounce) can unsweetened coconut milk
3 cups vegetable broth
3 ½ tablespoons lemon juice
1 teaspoon sea salt
1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
½ cup chopped fresh cilantro

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Place the sweet potatoes directly on the rack and bake until tender enough to easily pierce with a fork, about 45 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow to cool.
  • Heat the oil in a large saucepan or soup pot over medium heat. Add the onion and ginger; cook and stir until tender, about 5 minutes. Stir in the curry paste and heat for 1 minute, then whisk in the coconut milk and vegetable broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer for about 5 minutes.
  • Remove the skins from the sweet potatoes and cut into bite size chunks. Add to the soup and cook for 5 more minutes so they can soak up the flavor. Stir in lemon juice and season with salt. Ladle into bowls and garnish with a drizzle of sesame oil and a little bit of cilantro.

Categories     Potato

Yield 4 bowls

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 1/2 pounds sweet potatoes (about 3 large potatoes), rinsed
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 onion, roughly chopped
1 2-inch piece fresh ginger, peeled and thinly sliced
1 tablespoon red curry paste (found in the international section of markets)
1 15-ounce can unsweetened coconut milk
3 cups chicken or vegetable broth
3 1/2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
1/2 cup fresh cilantro sprigs

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400° F. Put the sweet potatoes on an oven rack and bake for 50 minutes or until tender. Remove from oven and let cool. Heat the vegetable oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Sauté the onion and ginger until the onion softens, about 5 minutes. Stir in the curry paste and cook for 1 minute. Add the coconut milk and broth and gently bring to a boil. Reduce heat to a simmer, partially cover, and cook for 5 minutes. Skin the potatoes and cut into 1-inch chunks. Add the potatoes to the soup and simmer for 5 minutes. Stir in the lemon juice and salt. Ladle the soup into serving bowls. Drizzle the sesame oil evenly over the servings. Garnish with the cilantro.

Tips:

  • To save time, use pre-cut sweet potatoes or butternut squash.
  • If you don't have coconut milk, you can use unsweetened almond milk or cashew milk.
  • Feel free to add other vegetables to the soup, such as carrots, celery, or bell peppers.
  • If you like your soup spicy, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes.
  • Serve the soup with a dollop of coconut yogurt or sour cream, and a sprinkle of chopped cilantro or green onions.
