This is a lovely sweet potato soup. I sometimes use Yams. Ingredients:
2 large sweet potatoes, cut into large pieces (about 1 1/2 pounds) |
1 cup chicken broth (may substitute vegetable to make vegetarian) |
1/4 cup orange juice |
1/4 teaspoon salt (i don't use as we watch our sodium intake) |
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg |
1 cup half-and-half |
1/2 cup chopped pecans |
1 dash cayenne (optional) |
Directions:
1. steam or microwave sweet potatoes till done by piercing with a fork and inside is mushy. Discard skin.
2. Scoop pulp into blender or food processor. Add 1/2 cup of chicken/vegetable broth. Cover and blend or process till smooth.
3. Transfer mixture to 2 quart saucepan. Stir in remaining chicken broth, the oragne juice, salt, nutmeg. Cover over medium-high heat, stirring constantly, until hot. Stir in half and half and pecans. Heat until hot.
