Winter Glow: Spicy Sweet Potato Soup 

One of my famous most loved nutritious soups in my Winter Cleanse is the Spicy Sweet Potato Soup. The meals in my eating plans are not only about weight loss. The menu focus will always be about the medical and health benefits.Sweet potatoes offer the best sources of vitamin A, vitamin B, riboflavin, niacin, thiamin and carotenoids. Scientists had determined that sweet potato contains anti inflammatory, anti diabetic and anti cancerous properties. With added cumin, this winning soup is sure to improve your digestive health and assist with bloating.

Recipe:

• 2 tsp of olive oil
• 1 large red onion, finely diced (about 1 and 1/2 cups)
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 5 sprigs of coriander, leaves reserved for garnish & stems tied together
• 3/4 tsp cumin
• Sea salt
• 2 large sweet potatoes, peeled and diced (about 6 cups)

Method:

Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the onion, garlic, coriander sprigs, cumin and a heavy pinch of salt and cook, stirring now and then, until softened but not browned (about 10 mins). Add the sweet potatoes and stir.Then add the vegetable stock and bring to a boil, lower the heat and simmer until the sweet potatoes are very soft(about 30 mins). Remove the coriander sprigs. Carefully puree the soup in a blender until you’ve reached your desired texture. Garnish with a few coriander leaves and enjoy.
