Winter warming soup

It's the time of year again for soup! And here is one that is super easy (3 key ingredients only needed- an onion, sweet potato and a tin of coconut milk). Perfect for those chilly winter days. This one is quite a sweet soup so if you prefer pumpkin or butternut squash it works just as well instead of sweet potato.

Makes: 4-5 bowls

Preparation: Less than 5-10 minutes

Cook time: 30 minutes

Ingredients

• 1 tbsp vegetable oil

• 1 white onion, chopped

• 750g sweet potatoes (2 medium or 1 large roughly) chopped into small chunks

• Full can coconut milk

To taste;

• x3 gloves of garlic chopped (optional)

• 1-2 tsp coriander

• 1-2 tsp cumin

• 250 ml milk (or hot water to make it vegan)

• A pinch of salt (to taste)

• A handful of fresh coriander to finish

Method

• Peel and chop the white onion into small pieces

• Peel and chop the garlic cloves into small pieces

• Heat the oil in a deep saucepan, then soften the onion for 4-5 mins

• Stir in the cumin and coriander spices and cook for 1 min more until fragrant.

• Add the chopped sweet potato and stir in the coconut and seasoning and cook for 30 minutes on a medium heat or until the sweet potatoes are soft

• Cool briefly before whizzing with a stick blender until smooth.

• Sprinkle with fresh coriander

• Tip- if soup mix is thick and milk or water!

Enjoy!
