Directions
Spicy Roasted Sweet Potato Soup With Curried Apples, For this recipe, use a crisp, fiber-packed apple like Lady Apple, Cortland, or Gala The roasted sweet potatoes are loaded with beta-carotene , This recipe is from Whole Living Magazine I had saved the article to make this and finally broke it out last night, and I’m glad I did! I have a cold and don’t usually like spicy food, so used both jalapenos and followed their directions to a tee It wasn’t as spicy as I had anticipated in the end; and it did the trick for clearing up a stuffed sniffer My husband really enjoyed this soup as well, and he is a soup snob Here is the link to the original recipe, although I think it is copied verbatim here wholeliving com/132157/roasted-sweet-potato-soup-curried-apples The topping is really good! We used plain Greek Yogurt but I think next time I might use creme fraiche (husband’s suggestion) , Nice soup, it’s very creamy since the sweet potato/yam is roasted beforehand I wasn’t sure about the jalapeno combination, but it works (I only used about 1/2 of what was called for, which was nicely spicy) The apple garnish was an interseting twist I wouldn’t have thought of I got lazy with the leftovers though, and just added a dash of curry powder, honey and ww vinegar to the soup itself instead of re-doing some more apples With or without the apple part, this is a good soup – thanks Sophie!
