Step‑by‑Step Instructions for Easy Sweet Potato Soup
  1. Sauté the Vegetables: In a large pot, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add 2 lbs of diced sweet potatoes, 1 cup of diced carrots, and ½ cup of diced onion. Sauté for about 10 minutes, until the sweet potatoes are lightly browned and the onion is translucent.
  2. Add Aromatics and Stock: Stir in 1 tablespoon of minced garlic and cook for an additional minute. Then, add 4 cups of vegetable stock, ¼ teaspoon of black pepper, ¼ teaspoon of salt, ½ teaspoon of paprika, and ground cinnamon. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer for 30-40 minutes.
  3. Blend for Creaminess: Blend the soup until smooth using an immersion blender or a regular blender, covering with a towel to prevent splatters.
  4. Serve or Store: Adjust seasoning if necessary and serve immediately or let it cool for storage.
