This sweet potato and coconut soup was a great hit with the staff today, especially with the cold weather. We ate this delicious soup with chunks of buttered french loaf.
You need
2 Tablespoons Oil
2 Tablespoons butter
1 Teaspoon Crushed Ginger
3 Tablespoons Papa's All in One Curry Mix
2 Onions (finely chopped)
2 Red Peppers ( seeded and chopped)
1 kg orange-fleshed Sweet Potato, peeled and cubed
250ml Coconut Cream
1.5 litres Chicken Stock
1/4 Cup Water
Here's How
Heat the oil and butter in a large saucepan. Add the onions, ginger, and red pepper and cook until slighly golden. Add Papa's Curry mix and 1/4 cup water. Mix well and cook for a minute, stirring frequently. Add the potato and chicken stock. Simmer for half an hour. Add coconut milk and simmer for a further 10 minutes. Remove from heat. Allow to cool and then blend the soup in small batches. Serve with a swirl of coconut cream, a little chopped coriander and croutons. A french loaf goes well with this soup,
