What’s in this tasty soup?

Sweet Potatoes are a starchy, sweet-tasting root vegetable with thin brown skin and colourful flesh on the inside – most commonly orange.

• However, you can also find varieties that have purple, white, or yellow flesh as well. For this recipe, I use the orange fleshed one.

These sweet potatoes are good for you too.

• For example, one the biggest nutritional benefits is that they are high in beta-carotene, an antioxidant which converts into vitamin A when consumed. It is also a great source of vitamin C, manganese, and potassium.

How to pick and store sweet potatoes?

• Choose sweet potatoes with smooth, firm, even-looking skin. Don’t pick ones with cracks, bruises or discolouration.
• Store raw sweet potatoes in a cool, dry place, but not in the refrigerator.

Carrots are a root vegetable that’s a kitchen ingredient staple for many households. Not only are they typically inexpensive and available year-round, these veggies are healthy.

• For example, they are a rich source of beta-carotene (like sweet potatoes), fiber, vitamin K, and potassium, which can help with lowering cholesterol levels and maintaining healthy vision.

How to choose and store carrots:

• Look for firm carrots with bright orange (or purple, red, white, or yellow) color and smooth, crisp skin. Avoid carrots if they are limp, cracked, or black near the tops.
• Store carrots by trimming off the green leaves, placing them in a container filled with water, sealing them with a lid, and then storing in the refrigerator. Change out the water when it becomes cloudy, every 3-5 days.

Coconut milk is added to the sweet vegetables to bring a delicious coconut flavour that’s slightly nutty. This is also a great vegan alternative to using regular (cow’s) milk or cream.

The aromatic combination of onion, garlic, and ginger along with the warming spices, which include cinnamon, cardamom, and cumin adds amazing flavour that’s sweet, savoury, zingy, and lightly spicy. Perfect to go with the orange vegetables in this yummy soup.

Once sautéed and pressure cooked, all these ingredients are pureed together to create one delicious, silky, thick soup!
