Thai Sweet Potato Soup with Raw Honey
This recipe is a delicious, healthy way to get your raw honey in. Don’t wait till it gets cold–it's amazing in warm weather, too!
- 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 1 large onion chopped
- 1 medium red bell pepper chopped
- 2 large carrots chopped
- 1 tsp cayenne pepper
- ground black pepper to taste
- 1 clove garlic
- 1/2 inch french ginger peeled and minced
- 1 large sweet potato peeled and cubed
- 6 cups vegetable broth low sodium
- 1 14.5-oz can diced tomatoes with juice no salt added
- 2/3 cup natural peanut butter
- 2 tsp raw honey
-
Heat oil in a large soup pot over medium high heat. Add onions, bell pepper, and carrots and cook for several minutes until vegetables are tender, stirring frequently.
-
Add spices, garlic, and ginger, for 30 seconds more.
-
Stir in sweet potato, broth, and tomatoes. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer 20 minutes or until potatoes are tender.
-
Puree the soup either with a hand-held blender or by pouring it into a blender in two batches. If you use the blender method, be sure to lift one corner of the lid or remove the vent and blend at a very low speed to avoid a vacuum-sealed explosion with very hot liquids.
-
When the soup is cooled down to a warm temperature, add peanut butter and honey. Stir well. Serve warm.
