Ingredients
Instructions
-
Cook the sweet potatoes until tender, then let them cool slightly and scoop the flesh into a bowl.
-
Warm the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the onion and cook until it softens and turns lightly golden.
-
Pour in the tomatoes, coconut milk, curry seasoning, and the water or broth. Give everything a gentle stir and bring it to a slow simmer.
-
Add the sweet potato flesh and mix it in so it warms through and begins to break down.
-
Blend the soup until smooth using an immersion blender, or carefully blend in batches.
-
Return the soup to a gentle simmer, season with salt and pepper, and adjust the consistency with more liquid if you like.
-
Let it sit for a few minutes before serving so the flavors settle together.
Note
This soup keeps well in the fridge for several days and reheats gently.
It freezes nicely for make-ahead meals, just cool completely before freezing.
You can add a pinch of smoked paprika or a splash of lime juice to shift the flavor profile.
