Sweet Potato Carrot Ginger Soup Recipes

Steps:

• Melt butter in large pot.
• Saute onions, celery, garlic, carrots, and sweet potato over medium heat for about 12 minutes (until vegetables have softened).
• Add ginger, curry powder, and any other optional seasonings. Stir for 2 minutes.
• Add chicken or vegetable broth and bring to a boil.
• Reduce heat and let simmer for 5 minutes.
• Add the cream and again bring to a boil.
• Reduce heat and let simmer until vegetables are soft and tender (stirring frequently).
• Turn off heat and let soup cool for 5-10 minutes.
• Puree with an immersion blender or in batches in a blender or food processor.
• Add salt/pepper to taste.

Steps:

• Heat butter and bacon grease in a large pot over medium heat; cook and stir carrots and onion in the melted butter-bacon grease mixture until onion is translucent, 5 to 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Add 1/2 the thyme to carrot-onion mixture; cook and stir until thyme is fragrant, 10 to 15 seconds.
• Stir chicken stock, sweet potato, ginger paste, remaining thyme, salt, and pepper into carrot-onion mixture. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer until sweet potato is soft and flavors of soup have blended, 15 to 20 minutes. Mix orange juice, brown sugar, red pepper flakes, and cinnamon into soup.
• Puree soup using a hand blender until smooth; mix in more chicken stock to reach desired consistency. Stir half-and-half into soup.

Steps:

• Peel sweet potato and chop into pieces no larger than 1 inch. Peel the carrots and chop into pieces no larger 3/4 inches. Peel the onion and chop into 3/4 inch pieces.
• Use a vegetable peeler or paring knife to peel the ginger. Mince it finely.
• Place sweet potato, carrots, onion and ginger in crock pot and stir to combine.
• Add the broth.
• Cover and cook on low until vegetables are tender 9-11 hours.
• Turn the crock pot off and let cool for a few minutes, then puree in a blender in batches or use an immersion blender right in the crock.
• Season with salt and white pepper to taste.
• Serve the soup, hot or cold garnished with a spoonful of yogurt.

Steps:

• Heat oil in a 4- to 6-quart Dutch oven or soup pot over medium-high heat. Add leek and carrot; cook, stirring often, until they begin to soften, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in sweet potatoes (or yams) and chopped ginger. Add broth and bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat to low and simmer until sweet potatoes are soft, about 30 minutes.
• In batches, if necessary, transfer the soup to a blender or food processor and process until smooth. Return the soup to the pot, season with salt and reheat. Just before serving, stir in grated ginger. Whisk yogurt and milk in a small bowl until smooth. Ladle soup into bowls; drop a large dollop (or several small dollops) of thinned yogurt onto each one. Draw the tip of a knife or a toothpick through the yogurt to make decorative swirls. Garnish with cilantro and serve with lime wedges for squeezing into the soup.

Steps:

• Heat oil in saucepan.
• Add shallots (onions), sauté for 3 minutes until tender.
• Add potato, carrots, ginger & curry. Cook 2 minutes.
• Add broth. Bring to boil then simmer for 25-30 minutes - until tender.
• Puree soup ½ at a time in blender or food processor.

Steps:

• If you are using a fresh butternut squash, cut it in half lengthwise and scoop out the seeds. Peel it and cut it into 1-inch chunks.
• Heat the oil in a large soup pot over medium heat. Add the onion and cook until it softens, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and ginger root and cook until fragrant, about 3 minutes.
• While the onions are cooking, peel and dice the sweet potato and carrots.
• Add the cut vegetables and broth; bring to a boil. Lower heat and cook at a gentle boil until the squash is fork-tender, about 20 minutes (but this depends on the size of your squash cubes).
• Puree the soup in several stages in a blender. For safety's sake, since the soup is hot, do not fill the jar more than about 1/4 full each time, and blend on a low speed, covering the lid with an oven mitt. The soup should be completely smooth and a little thicker than heavy cream.
• Rinse your soup pot to remove any small chunks of food and strain it if you like (I do not strain).
• Heat the soup through again and season to taste with cinnamon, nutmeg, black pepper and salt.
• Add some almond milk, a little at a time, to give soup a creamier consistency. (Instead of almond milk or Almond Breeze, you could probably use soy or rice milk or half and half).
• Just before serving, add about 2-3 teaspoons fresh orange juice (or to taste) to each bowl, if desired; stir to blend into soup.
• This soup tastes fine when it has been reheated. The soup will thicken as it chills, so you may want to add extra spice right at the start, if you know you will be re-heating some later. You will need extra Almond Breeze to thin it out after it has been refrigerated. I have kept it in the fridge for as long as 4 days and it was fine.
• You can sub pumpkin pie spice for the ground spices listed.
• Because the veggies make the broth very flavorful, you can also use half chicken broth and half water (2 cups of each) with good results.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450°F. Poke the sweet potatoes with a fork, wrap in aluminum foil, and bake in the oven for 1 hour. Remove from the oven and let cool to room temperature.
• Cut the sweet potatoes in half and scrape out the flesh. Heat the oil over medium heat in a large Dutch oven or heavy soup pot.
• Add the onions and ginger, and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes or until the onions are translucent.
• Add the jalapeño, coriander, and nutmeg and cook for 3 minutes or until fragrant.
• Add the roasted sweet potato flesh and stock to the pot. Simmer for 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and purée with a handheld immersion blender or food processor until smooth. Season with salt.
• Divide the soup among 6 serving bowls and sprinkle with the green onions.
