Healthy Curried Sweet Potato Soup is your answer for those chilly fall and winter nights! Pair with some easy French Bread Rolls, and you have comfort food at its best!
I love sweet potatoes! How about you? It’s something healthy I can regularly get my family to eat, especially when they are roasted like this.
But sometimes you just need a really creamy, comforting soup. Sweet potatoes are the perfect player here because they can be transformed into smooth puree and added to a creamy soup base.
Let’s get started!
How to Make Curried Sweet Potato Soup
First you’ll need to bake a sweet potato. I just grab a big sweet potato (you can also use a yam), wash it off, stab it a few times with a fork, and wrap it in foil. You want your sweet potato to weigh about a pound.
Bake it at 350 degrees F. for one hour.
Remove from the oven, unwrap, and let cool until you can touch it without getting burned.
Pull the skin off with your fingers (it will come off very easily). Alternately, you can slice the sweet potato open and scoop out the flesh with a spoon.
Place the flesh into a blender or food processor and puree.
Now you just need to make your creamy soup base using butter, flour, salt, and milk. Alternately, if you want to make this soup dairy-free, you can simply use canned coconut milk in place of the creamy soup base.
Then you add curry powder and your pureed sweet potato and you’re done! Unless you want to add frozen peas to add color and texture. Go ahead and do that if you like. Otherwise, enjoy the bisque-like texture of this delicious soup!
Healthy Curried Sweet Potato Soup is your answer for those chilly fall and winter nights! To make this dairy-free, omit the butter, flour, and milk. Instead, use 4 cups canned coconut milk.Curried Sweet Potato Soup (Dairy Free Option Included)
