I initially didn’t have a clue how to cook this vegetable, but a sweet potato turns out to make a fantastic soup. Here is my recipe:
Chicken and Sweet Potato Soup
1 tsbp of olive oil
Fresh Ginger
1 Onion
2 Cloves of Garlic
Chili powder (suit to your flavour)
2 Chicken Stock cubes
4 Sweet Potatoes
300g Chicken
200g Cauliflower
100ml milk
Salt and pepper
- boil your chicken stock in approximately 1.5 litres of water
- in another large pan, fry shredded ginger, onion, crushed garlic and chili powder until the onion starts to slightly brown; approximately 3-4 minutes
- Add around 50ml of the chicken stock to create the base of your soup.
- Add sweet potato (cut into cubes), chicken (cut into pieces) and cauliflower (cut into small pieces); then add the chicken stock to the pan.
- Heat through for around 30-40 minutes.
- Add 100ml milk
- Season for flavour
- Once finished, blend and then add back to pan… enjoy!
