SLOW-COOKER CURRIED SWEET POTATO SOUP WITH COCONUT AND KALE



Slow-Cooker Curried Sweet Potato Soup With Coconut and Kale image

This creamy Thai-inspired soup is all about balance: When the contrasting flavors are in harmony, it is outrageously delicious. (It is also vegan if there's no fish or shrimp in your curry paste.) Supermarket curry pastes are a great shortcut to flavor for weeknights, but salt and spice levels can vary greatly among brands. So taste at the end, and adjust: You may need to add curry paste, sugar or lime juice to your liking. Chile-lime flavored peanuts, available at some grocery stores, are particularly good for topping - snap them up if you happen to see them. Otherwise, roasted salted peanuts will work beautifully.

Time 8h20m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 1/2 pounds sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1- to 2-inch chunks
1 medium yellow or red onion, chopped
5 large garlic cloves
2 tablespoons coconut oil, preferably unrefined virgin
2 tablespoons packed light brown sugar
1 teaspoon turmeric
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more to taste
1 (4-ounce) jar red curry paste (1/2 cup)
1 (13-ounce) can full-fat coconut milk
1 cup smooth peanut butter
Juice of 1 lime, plus more to taste
5 ounces/1 medium bunch baby kale or spinach, stemmed and chopped
Roasted, salted peanuts, for topping

Steps:

  • Combine the sweet potatoes, onion, garlic, oil, sugar, turmeric and salt in a 5- to 8-quart slow cooker. Add more than half of the jar of curry paste (about 1/3 cup) and 1 cup of water. Stir to combine all the ingredients and cook on low until the potatoes are quite tender, about 8 hours.
  • Add the coconut milk, peanut butter, remaining curry paste and 2 1/2 cups water to the slow cooker. Using an immersion blender, purée the soup until it is uniformly creamy. Add the lime juice and the kale, and stir to combine. Cook on low until the greens are wilted and tender, about 10 minutes. Stir in more warm water if you would like a looser texture. Taste and add more lime juice or salt if necessary. Serve in bowls with peanuts on top.

Tips:

  • Choose the right sweet potatoes: Use firm and brightly colored sweet potatoes for the best flavor and texture.
  • Roast the sweet potatoes before adding them to the soup: Roasting intensifies the sweet potatoes' natural sweetness and gives them a slightly smoky flavor.
  • Use a good quality vegetable broth: The vegetable broth is the base of the soup, so it's important to use a good quality broth that has a rich flavor.
  • Don't be afraid to add spices: Curry powder, cumin, and turmeric are all common spices used in curried sweet potato soup. Feel free to experiment with different spices to create a flavor profile that you enjoy.
  • Garnish the soup with fresh herbs: Fresh herbs, such as cilantro or parsley, add a pop of color and freshness to the soup.
