Thai Curry Sweet Potato Soup

If you’re craving something warm and cozy for a chilly day, we’ve got just the thing! We’ve been itching to use our homemade green curry paste, and this soup is the perfect opportunity. It’s hearty, warming, spicy, and surprisingly not sweet! Plus, it looks stunning and will totally impress your friends. Here’s how we whipped it up:

Ingredients:

• 2 shallots, chopped
• 2 large sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into cubes
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tbsp grated ginger
• 1 can full-fat coconut milk
• 4 cups veggie stock
• 1 tbsp green curry paste
• 1 tbsp no-fish sauce
• ½ lime, squeezed
• 1 tsp salt
• Pepper to taste
• Cilantro for topping

Directions:

1. Sauté the Aromatics
   Heat a large pot over medium-high heat. Add a splash of veggie stock, an ice cube, or a bit of oil. Toss in the shallots and sauté until they’re soft, about 5 minutes. Add the ginger and garlic, and more liquid if needed. Stir until fragrant, about a minute or two.
2. Build the Soup Base
   Add the sweet potatoes, coconut milk, veggie stock, green curry paste, no-fish sauce, and salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer.
3. Simmer Until Tender
   Cook for about 20 minutes or until the sweet potatoes are completely soft.
4. Blend Until Smooth
   Using an immersion blender or a high-powered blender, blend the soup until smooth. Return to the pot, add the lime juice, and adjust the seasoning. Top with cilantro, sliced almonds, or coconut bacon.
