Indian Spice Sweet Potato Soup
Ingredients
- 2 tbsp coconut oil
- 1 yellow onion chopped
- 2 sweet potatoes peeled and cubed
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1 ½ tbsp garam masala
- 2 cups organic broth (vegetable or chicken)
- 1 cup full-fat coconut milk
- sea salt to taste
- freshly ground pepper to taste
- 3 tbsp fresh cilantro chopped
Directions
- In a large, heavy pan, heat coconut oil over medium-high heat. Sauté onions and potatoes until just softened, about 3 minutes.
- Add garlic and saute for an additional minute. Add the garam masala spice and cook for 30 seconds.
- Add the broth and bring to a boil; reduce to simmer, cover and cook for 20-25 minutes or until the potatoes are tender.
- Add coconut milk and stir to mix. Transfer about half the soup to a blender or food processor and process until smooth (alternatively use a separate bowl with hand blender).
- Return to the pot and add an additional ½ cup of broth if needed. Season with salt and pepper and top with cilantro.
