Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Vegetables

    Peel and chop the sweet potatoes into small cubes. Dice the onion and mince the garlic.

  2. 2

    Sauté the Aromatics

    In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.

  3. 3

    Cook the Sweet Potatoes

    Add the sweet potato cubes to the pot and stir well. Pour in the vegetable broth, and add the ground ginger, cinnamon, salt, and black pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for about 20 minutes or until the sweet potatoes are tender.

  4. 4

    Blend the Bisque

    Once the sweet potatoes are tender, remove the pot from heat. Use an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth. Alternatively, you can carefully transfer the soup in batches to a countertop blender.

  5. 5

    Add Coconut Milk

    Stir in the coconut milk and return the pot to low heat. Warm the bisque for a few minutes, adjusting seasoning as necessary.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Ladle the sweet potato bisque into bowls and garnish with chopped fresh chives before serving.
