SWEET POTATO SOUP (CURRIED KUMARA SOUP)



Sweet Potato Soup (Curried Kumara Soup) image

An easy, creamy soup with just a hint of curry flavor. This recipe uses sweet potato because it is available in the US. In New Zealand they use kumara which is related to the sweet potato. It is a purplish root vegetable that, when peeled and cooked, is a yellow green color and is an important part of the Maori (native New Zealanders') diet.

4 tablespoons butter
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 medium onion, chopped
1 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated
1/2 teaspoon curry powder (or more to taste)

3 cups milk
salt & freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup cream or 1/4 cup coconut milk
fresh cilantro or scallion, minced

Steps:

  • In a large saucepan sauté onion, garlic, ginger and curry in butter over medium heat until onion is softened, about 5 minutes. Add the sweet potato and cook 1 or 2 minutes without browning. Add the stock and cover. Cook about 10 minutes, until tender.

This is so quick and easy because I can get pre-mashed kumara in tubs in the veggie section of my local Woolworths Supermarket. If it is not available to you prep time will obviously be much longer.
