SWEET POTATO JALAPENO SOUP



Sweet Potato Jalapeno Soup image

This recipe comes from a wonderful little community called Homestead Heritage outside of Waco, TX. This spicy, creamy, smoky soup is a favorite of everyone who tries it and I'm pleased to say that they share their recipes! I entered this soup into our churches Souper Bowl contest and it won the Hot Stuff award! Notes to add: 1. I used about 5.5 lbs sweet potatoes and it was still very spicy. If you want to make it mild or kid friendly, cut way back on the jalapenos and just place them in a bowl as a side. 2. To sweeten it, I have found that 2 Tbsp brown sugar does the trick. 3. This soup freezes beautifully! You won't be disappointed in this soup!

SWEET POTATO JALAPENO SOUP RECIPE - (4.1/5)



Sweet potato jalapeno soup Recipe - (4.1/5) image

Provided by barbsjustagirl

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 lbs sweet potatoes
4 cups chicken broth, or 4 cups water with 4 cubes chicken bouillon
1 medium onion, chopped
3 garlic cloves, minced
5 slices bacon
6 tablespoons butter
1/4 cup jalapeno
2 teaspoons cumin
1/2 cup chopped cilantro
1/2 cup half-and-half
salt and pepper to taste

Steps:

  • First, preheat your oven to 400 degrees, rinse off your jalapenos, wrap in foil, and throw them in for 20 minutes. Then take them out and give them a rough chop. Scrub your sweet potatoes and cut them in half. Bring a large pot of water to boil and add in sweet potatoes. Boil until you can stick them and they are soft. Drain and let them cool until you can handle them. Peel off the skin, set aside. While potatoes are cooling, add butter to the soup pot over medium-high heat. Add onion, saute until onions are translucent, add garlic and saute about one more minute. Cook your bacon separately in the microwave, oven, or in a skillet. When cooked, break 3 of the slices into pieces and add to the onions and garlic. Add chicken broth to the pot, cover and bring to a boil. Slice the peeled sweet potatoes into bite sized pieces and add to the soup pot. Add jalapenos, cumin, cilantro, and half-and-half. Stir into soup. Sprinkle with a little salt and pepper. Use your immersion blender or regular blender, to blend all the ingredients until they are smooth with no lumps. Add salt and pepper to taste. Sprinkle remaining bacon and some cilantro on top.

Tips:

  • Choose the right sweet potatoes: Look for firm, unblemished sweet potatoes that are about the same size. This will ensure that they cook evenly.
  • Roast the sweet potatoes: Roasting the sweet potatoes brings out their natural sweetness and flavor. You can roast them in the oven or on a grill.
  • Use a good quality broth: The broth is the base of the soup, so it's important to use a good quality broth. You can use chicken broth, vegetable broth, or a combination of the two.
  • Don't overcook the soup: The soup should be simmered until the sweet potatoes are tender, but not mushy. Overcooking the soup will make it bland and watery.
  • Season to taste: Season the soup with salt, pepper, and other spices to taste. You can also add a squeeze of lime juice or a dollop of sour cream to brighten up the flavors.

Conclusion:

Sweet potato jalapeno soup is a delicious and easy-to-make soup that is perfect for a cold winter day. It is also a good source of vitamins and minerals, including vitamin A, vitamin C, and potassium. So next time you're looking for a healthy and flavorful soup, give sweet potato jalapeno soup a try. You won't be disappointed!
