A great winter warmer which makes a good starter or lunch option.
Ingredients:
Olive Oil
500g Sweet Potatoes
1 red pepper roughly chopped
2 red onions roughly chopped
2 tsps cumin
500g vegetable stock
Seasoning
1.Peel and slice the sweet potato into disks about half a cm thick. Roughly chop the red pepper and onions.
2. Put the sweet potatoes, onions, red pepper and cumin in an over proof dish and add a glug of olive oil.
3. Roast in the oven at 180C for about 45 minutes until all the ingredients are soft.
4. Put the cooked vegetables into a blender and add the hot stock. Blend to a liquid and serve. Add more vegetable stock if you require a thinner consistency.
This is a really tasty and easy recipe. The cumin gives it a nice curry-ish taste but i imagine it would taste just as good without. I slightly adapted the recipe as only had 1 sweet potato so used only 1 tsps of cumin and at the end I added a little greek yoghurt to give it a creamy taste. A lovely wintery soup – highly recommended.
