Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 large yellow onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 inch ginger, peeled and grated
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
  • 4 cups vegetable broth (or chicken broth)
  • 2 large sweet potatoes (about 1.5 pounds), peeled and cubed
  • 1 apple (such as Granny Smith or Honeycrisp), peeled, cored, and chopped
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Optional: 1/4 cup coconut milk for creaminess
  • Instructions for Preparation:

Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Sauté chopped onion until translucent (5-7 minutes). Add minced garlic and grated ginger; cook until fragrant.
  2. Stir in cumin, coriander, and optional cayenne pepper; cook for another 30 seconds.
  3. Pour in vegetable broth; add cubed sweet potatoes and chopped apple along with salt and pepper. Bring to a gentle boil then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 20-25 minutes until sweet potatoes are tender.
  4. Blend the soup using an immersion blender or by transferring it to a blender until smooth.
  5. Return the blended soup to the pot if necessary. Stir in coconut milk if using; adjust seasoning as needed before warming through.
  6. Helpful Notes:
  7. To elevate your soup experience, consider adding more veggies like carrots or spinach for added nutrients. For a vegan twist, omit any cream or substitute with extra coconut milk. Customize your toppings with roasted chickpeas or fresh herbs for an extra burst of flavor.
