Ingredients
- 4 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 medium onion chopped, yellow
- 1 bell pepper seeded and diced, orange
- ginger root sliced, 1-inch piece
- 4 garlic , peeled and smashed
- 1 pound carrot peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces
- 1-½ pounds sweet potato about 2 small, peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces
- 8 cups water hot
- 2 tablespoons granulated chicken bouillon Knorr brand
- 1½ teaspoons curry powder , to taste
- 1 apple peeled, seeded, and chopped, Honey crisp or Granny Smith
- ½ teaspoon black pepper ground
- 3 scallions chopped, green
Instructions
- Heat the oil in a large soup pot over medium-high heat. Add the onions, bell pepper, ginger, garlic, and carrots and cook, stirring, until the vegetables soften, about 10 minutes. Add the chicken bouillon and black pepper.
- Stir in the sweet potato and water, and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer until the potatoes are tender, about 25 to 30 minutes. Add the apples.
- Using a stick blender, puree the soup until smooth and creamy (alternatively, let the soup cool slightly, then puree in 2 batches in the blender. Be sure to leave the hole in the lid open, and cover with a clean kitchen towel, to allow the steam to escape.)
- Taste and adjust salt and pepper, if needed. Ladle the carrot and sweet potato soup into bowls and serve with a swirl of cream if desired.
