Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp oil of your choice
  • 1 large Purple sweet potato
  • 1 large Red onion
  • 4 cloves Garlic
  • 1 inch knob of Ginger
  • 3 tsp Coriander
  • 1/2 tsp Turmeric
  • 1 tsp Smoked Paprika
  • 1 tsp Cayenne
  • 1 cup Almond Milk or vegetable stock
  • 1 small bunch parsley for garnish
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Prepare the purple sweet potato by either boiling it by submerging it in a large pan, for 35 minutes or so, over medium heat. Or, wrapping it in foil and baking it for 35 minutes or so at 400 degrees.
  • While the purple sweet potato is baking, peel and chop up the red onion, ginger, and garlic.
  • Add oil to a frying pan and add in the red onion, ginger, and garlic and saute for about 10 minutes, stirring so they do not burn.
  • Add in the coriander, turmeric, smoked paprika, and cayenne and stir well.
  • Turn the heat off and empty the contents into a blender or a large bowl if using an immersion blender.
  • Also to that blender or bowl, add in the cooked purple sweet potato and the almond milk.
  • Blend until creamy and smooth.
  • Then, season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Serve garnished with parsley and any other fixings.
