Adding sweet potato and peanut butter makes this soup something a bit different. Adapted from Alison Holst's 'Meals Without Red Meat'. Alison's recipe calls for kumara, I just prefer orange sweet potato myself.
Ingredients:
2 tablespoons butter
1 large onion, finely chopped
2 garlic cloves, chopped
1/2 teaspoon curry powder
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
1/4 teaspoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
250 g roughly cubed sweet potatoes
250 g roughly cubed pumpkin
4 cups water
2 teaspoons vegetable stock powder
1 tablespoon peanut butter
Directions:
1. Melt butter, add the chopped onion and garlic, saute gently.
2. Stir in the curry powder, coriander, chilli powder (I omit this when cooking for kids), and salt. Cook 1 minute.
3. Add vegetables, don't use more sweet potato than pumpkin as soup will be TOO sweet.
4. Add the water and stock, simmer gently for 20-25 minutes or until veges are tender, then stir in the peanut butter.
5. Use a stick blender to puree the soup, or mash it for a chunkier texture.
