Ingredients
 

  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 clove garlic minced
  • 1 onion minced
  • 1 tsp ginger minced
  • 1 (~ 1 pound/450g) sweet potato peeled & roughly chopped
  • 1 carrot sliced
  • 1 tbsp curry powder
  • 1 cup (240 ml) coconut milk
  • 2 cups (480 ml) vegetable broth

Apple Topping

  • 1 apple finely diced
  • ½ tbsp lemon or lime juice
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 pinch of ground cinnamon

Instructions
 

  • Heat a large pot with oil. Add onion, garlic, and ginger, sauté for a few minutes.
  • Add sweet potato and carrot, sauté for another 2-3 minutes. Stir in curry powder and cook for one additional minute.
  • Pour in coconut milk and vegetable broth, pop on the lid, and let it simmer for 15 minutes.
  • Blend the soup until smooth using a blender or immersion blender. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Apple Topping: In a small bowl, toss diced apple with lemon juice. Heat a skillet with olive oil. Add apples and sauté them for 5 minutes. Stir in a pinch of cinnamon (or as much you like). Set aside.
  • Serve in bowls garnished with the apple topping!

Notes

Curry Powder: I love to use a homemade mixture of ½ tbsp mild curry powder and ½ tbsp madras curry powder (spicy). It tastes delicious with any curry powder or even with yellow Thai curry paste.
Make-Ahead: Keeps fresh for 3 days. Store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
Freeze: Can be frozen for up to 3 months. Thaw it directly in a pot over medium heat.
