Delicious Spicy Sweet Potato, Red Pepper and Carrot Soup - a family favourite I have been making for years.
Although soups tend to be made more frequently in the winter, this soup is one I love to make any time of year. Great one for making a huge pot of and freezing some portions for another day. I like to have at least one tub in my freezer at all times.
It has the lovely natural sweetness from the sweet potato, carrots and red pepper with the spicy kick from the cayenne and a delicious combination of flavours from the added spices.
Doesn't it look beautiful when served up with a sprinkling of coriander?
When I make soups like this Spicy Sweet Potato, Red Pepper and Carrot Soup, I tend to prefer it to have little bites of the vegetables, rather than completely smooth.
So I just very roughly blend with an immersion blender like this handy Koölle Electric Powerful 3-in-1 800 Watt Hand Stick Blender below, once cooked:
I literally just add the stick blender into the soup for a couple of seconds, that's all it needs, to thicken it, while still being able to taste those lovely chunks of vegetables.
However, if you prefer a soup that is completely smooth, by all means, add it all into a blender and blend to your desired consistency.
Trying an SP day? Swap out the sweet potato for butternut squash, both are very similar - sweet potato is just a little more starchy and this is SP friendly.
This syn free Spicy Sweet Potato, Red Pepper and Carrot Soup is a perfect meal in a bowl. So filling and comforting, especially on a cold, winters day.
It freezes perfectly too, so is great for a batch cooking day, if you want to get some soups made up to freeze. I love having my freezer stocked with tubs of things like this, you never know when you might need to grab something for a quick meal on a busy day.
Don't forget to tag me if you make this soup @slimmingeats on Instagram, so I can see your pictures.
