THAI GINGER SWEET POTATO SOUP

Steps:

Add sweet potatoes and ginger, then puree until mixture is smooth. Return mixture to saucepan. Add coconut milk, chicken stock, salt, soy sauce, lime juice and curry paste. Bring to a simmer, and cook for 15 minutes. Stir in 2 tablespoons of the cilantro. Simmer for 2 minutes more. Ladle soup into serving bowls, and garnish with shredded coconut and remaining cilantro. NOTES: instead of blending the whole soup, only blend the onion and ginger. Leave the sweet potato in small pieces. Use an immersion blender to blend some of the potato at the end, but leave the majority of it chunky, so it's more of a broth soup. Add green peas. Not very hot - use more paste.
