Sweet Potato Soup Recipe
A simple sweet potato soup simmered with carrots, celery, ginger, and curry, blended until smooth and finished with coconut milk for a creamy finish.
Servings: 6 servings
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 large onion diced
- 2 celery stalks chopped
- 2 carrots chopped
- 4 medium sweet potatoes peeled and cubed
- 1 tablespoon fresh ginger grated
- 1 teaspoon ground coriander
- ½ teaspoon curry
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- 4 cups low sodium vegetable broth
- ½ cup can light unsweetened coconut milk
- Fresh cilantro for serving

Instructions
- In a large pot over medium heat, heat the olive oil. Cook the onions, celery and carrots until soft and translucent, about 5-7 minutes.
- Add the sweet potatoes, ginger, coriander and curry and cook until fragrant, about 2 more minutes.
- Add the vegetable broth and bring mixture to a boil. Lower the heat, cover and simmer until the sweet potatoes are tender, about 30-35 minutes.
- Puree the mixture with an immersion blender (or regular blender, in batches) to desired consistency.

Notes
- My Top Tip: Cut the sweet potatoes into small bite-sized pieces. Even though you're going to blend the soup later, it helps to cut the potatoes smaller so they cook faster and more evenly.
- Storage: Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days.
- Freeze: The soup will keep frozen for up to 6 months.
