Key ingredients for sweet potato soup<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Sweet Potatoes \u2013<\/strong> you\u2019ll need about 3-4 medium-sized sweet potatoes for this soup; about 900g-1kg in total. I recommend buying organic as they are more flavourful. And local or from continent are best. I find that oversee imports pale in comparison, and less us not forget the ecological footprint<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Coconut Milk \u2013<\/strong> organic, full-fat coconut milk is best for a creamy consistency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thai Red Curry Paste \u2013<\/strong> Thai red curry paste is available in many well-stocked grocery stores or Asian markets. Alnatura<\/a> makes a delicious one, which is my personal favorites.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lemongrass \u2014<\/strong> This is what gives the soup a subtle citrussy taste with hints of ginger. This really makes it something special.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All-natural peanut butter (no sugar added) \u2014<\/strong> Adding just a tiny bit of peanut butter to this Thai soup recipe makes it incredibly tasty thanks to that little bit of rich, savory umami taste. Either creamy or crunchy peanut butter is fine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to adapt this sweet potato soup with coconut milk<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Needless to say, I think its perfect as it is, but you could also change things up a little. Try substituting 1\/3 of the sweet potato for carrot<\/strong>. Or try roasting the sweet potato<\/strong> for another level of taste. Roasting will bring out more of its sweetness. Same goes with carrots. You could also trade out sweet potatoes for butternut squash<\/strong>. It can also be roasted in the oven. Simply cut out in half lengthwise, scoop of the seeds, brush it with oil and then roast with the skin side up until tender. Once done, simply scoop out the flesh. This is how I make my Roasted Thai Butternut Squash Carrot Soup.<\/a> Check it out!<\/p>\n\n\n
