Categories     main-dish

Time 50m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

2 tablespoons unsalted butter
4 slices thick-cut bacon, cut into a small dice
2 cups diced peeled sweet potato
2 medium shallots, sliced
2 cloves garlic, chopped
1 small red bell pepper, diced
3 sprigs fresh thyme
1 sprig fresh sage
1 bay leaf
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons yellow curry powder
One 15-ounce can corn, drained
2 cups chicken stock
1 cup heavy cream
1 tablespoon sherry vinegar
1/4 cup minced chives

Steps:

  • In a stockpot or Dutch oven over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the bacon and cook until crispy and most of the fat is rendered, about 8 minutes. Set the bacon aside for later use, leaving the fat in the pot.
  • In the same pot over medium heat, saute the sweet potato, shallots, garlic and bell pepper, stirring frequently, until the shallots are tender and translucent, about 3 minutes. Add the thyme, sage and bay leaf. Season with salt and pepper. Add the flour and curry to the vegetables and stir until incorporated. Cook for another 2 minutes.
  • Add the corn, chicken stock, heavy cream and sherry vinegar. Bring to a simmer and cook, covered, until the sweet potato is tender, another 20 to 25 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Plate into individual bowls and garnish with the crispy bacon and chives.

SLOW-COOKER CURRIED SWEET POTATO SOUP WITH COCONUT AND KALE



Slow-Cooker Curried Sweet Potato Soup With Coconut and Kale image

This creamy Thai-inspired soup is all about balance: When the contrasting flavors are in harmony, it is outrageously delicious. (It is also vegan if there's no fish or shrimp in your curry paste.) Supermarket curry pastes are a great shortcut to flavor for weeknights, but salt and spice levels can vary greatly among brands. So taste at the end, and adjust: You may need to add curry paste, sugar or lime juice to your liking. Chile-lime flavored peanuts, available at some grocery stores, are particularly good for topping - snap them up if you happen to see them. Otherwise, roasted salted peanuts will work beautifully.

Time 8h20m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 1/2 pounds sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1- to 2-inch chunks
1 medium yellow or red onion, chopped
5 large garlic cloves
2 tablespoons coconut oil, preferably unrefined virgin
2 tablespoons packed light brown sugar
1 teaspoon turmeric
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more to taste
1 (4-ounce) jar red curry paste (1/2 cup)
1 (13-ounce) can full-fat coconut milk
1 cup smooth peanut butter
Juice of 1 lime, plus more to taste
5 ounces/1 medium bunch baby kale or spinach, stemmed and chopped
Roasted, salted peanuts, for topping

Steps:

  • Combine the sweet potatoes, onion, garlic, oil, sugar, turmeric and salt in a 5- to 8-quart slow cooker. Add more than half of the jar of curry paste (about 1/3 cup) and 1 cup of water. Stir to combine all the ingredients and cook on low until the potatoes are quite tender, about 8 hours.
  • Add the coconut milk, peanut butter, remaining curry paste and 2 1/2 cups water to the slow cooker. Using an immersion blender, purée the soup until it is uniformly creamy. Add the lime juice and the kale, and stir to combine. Cook on low until the greens are wilted and tender, about 10 minutes. Stir in more warm water if you would like a looser texture. Taste and add more lime juice or salt if necessary. Serve in bowls with peanuts on top.
