This aromatic, creamy soup, bursting with flavor and a vibrant blend of ginger and spices, will warm you up on gloomy autumn evenings. Suitable for vegetarians and health-conscious eaters, this dish is also delicious. The peanut butter adds a special depth of flavor.

Cooking the dish according to the recipe:


  1. Heat canola oil in a large soup pot over medium heat. Add the onion, bell pepper, and carrot. Cook, stirring, until the vegetables are softened, about 5 minutes. Add the cayenne and black pepper, garlic, and ginger and cook for another minute.
  2. Stir in the sweet potato, broth, and tomatoes and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer until the sweet potato is tender, about 20 minutes.

  3. Puree the soup in the saucepan with an immersion blender or in 2 batches in a regular blender, then pour it back in. peanut butter, honey and stir over low heat until the paste melts.
  4. Serve warm, garnished with green onions.

    Note

    When whipping hot liquids, Remove the soup from the heat and let it cool for at least 5 minutes. Pour it into a blender or food processor. Fill the container no more than halfway. If using a blender, leave the lid slightly ajar in the corner. This will prevent a vacuum from forming, which could cause an explosion when the heat is released. Place a towel over the blender, pulse a few times, and then continue puréeing on high speed until smooth.
