SWEET POTATO AND BASIL CREAM SOUP



Sweet Potato and Basil Cream Soup image

A homemade chicken stock spiced with a Scotch bonnet or habanero chile lays the foundation for this tropical dish. Coconut powder and sweet potatoes add to the island feel. "It's a sweet soup and is more appropriate as an appetizer than an entrée, though I have to admit I've indulged in several bowls for dinner," Epicurious member JTucci says. Although Tucci calls it a soup, the coconut chicken broth will be scant-just enough to cover the chicken and cabbage at the bottom of the bowl.

Yield makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 boneless skinless chicken breast
2 to 4 skin-on chicken wings
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 bay leaf
1 (2-inch) cinnamon stick
1 habanero chile (optional)
1 large sweet potato, peeled, quartered, and cut into 1/4-inch dice
1/2 large head green cabbage, very thinly sliced
1/4 cup unsweetened coconut milk
1 banana, peeled, halved lengthwise, and cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices
4 large basil leaves, thinly sliced

Steps:

  • In a heavy large pot over moderate heat, heat the oil until hot but not smoking. Add the chicken breast and wings and brown on all sides, about 4 minutes total. Transfer the chicken breast to a plate and set aside.
  • Add enough water to the pot to cover the chicken wings by 1 inch. Add the thyme, bay leaf, cinnamon stick, and the chile, if using. Season with salt and pepper and bring to a simmer. Continue simmering, scraping up any browned bits sticking to the bottom of the pot and skimming the fat as necessary, until reduced by half, about 15 minutes.
  • Pour the stock through a fine-mesh strainer, discarding the solids. Return the stock to the large pot and bring to a simmer. Add the sweet potato and simmer until barely tender, about 10 minutes. Coarsely chop the reserved chicken breast and add it to the soup, along with the shredded cabbage and the coconut milk. Simmer gently until the chicken is heated through, about 5 minutes.
  • Divide the banana slices among 4 bowls, then pour some soup into each bowl, making sure to evenly distribute the chicken and the cabbage. Garnish with basil and serve immediately.

CREAM OF SWEET POTATO SOUP



Cream of Sweet Potato Soup image

This easy to prepare yet oh-so-elegant soup is a favorite at my house. Because it has a slightly sweet taste, the kids love it, and it's my husband's favorite soup. Serve warm with buttery garlic bread and a crisp green salad. You can also serve cold with cucumber or watercress sandwiches.

Time 2h25m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 large sweet potatoes
3 (14 ounce) cans low-sodium chicken broth
¼ cup brown sugar, or more to taste
½ teaspoon salt (to taste)
¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
Black pepper to taste
Cayenne pepper to taste
⅓ cup heavy cream

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Bake sweet potatoes in preheated oven until soft, about 1 1/2 hours (you can also use a microwave). Remove and let cool slightly.
  • Peel sweet potatoes, and puree with chicken broth in batches, using enough chicken broth so that it purees smoothly. Bring puree to a simmer in a large saucepan over medium-high heat, then reduce heat to medium-low. Stir in the sugar, salt, nutmeg, black pepper, and cayenne pepper; cover, and let simmer for 10 minutes. Remove from heat, and stir in cream.

  • In a large pot, or French Oven, over medium heat, cook bacon in it's own fat until crisp (8-10 min). Remove with a slotted spoon to a paper towel-lined plate. Leave 3 Tbsp oil in the pot; discard excess or leave it in there for a more flavorful soup.
  • Add chopped onion, and celery and cook 4 min or until soft, stirring occasionally, then add 2 pressed garlic cloves and saute another minute.
  • Stir in diced sweet potatoes, 1/2 tsp dried thyme leaves and 2 tsp salt. Now pour in 4 cups chicken broth, partially cover and simmer 20 min or until sweet potatoes are easily pierced with a fork.
  • Puree soup until smooth. I accomplished this in two batches in my Blender. Return soup to pot and stir in 1 cup coconut milk, or add it to reach desired consistency then season with more salt and pepper to taste if desired. Serve in warm bowls.

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Roughly chop five sweet potatoes. Spread sweet potatoes and pear pieces onto a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper. Add a light coating of olive oil along with a sprinkling of salt and pepper, then place in the oven for about 25 minutes or until a fork easily pierces through the potato chunks.
  • Meanwhile, heat a skilled with a little olive oil until just hot. Add the onion and celery, and sauté for about 3 minutes, or until the vegetables are translucent. Add the garlic and sauté for a minute more. While these vegetables are cooking, slice the remaining sweet potato and the red jalapeño pepper as thinly as possible.
  • In another pan, add about 1/4 inch of olive oil and fry the basil leaves; these will fry quickly, so keep an eye on them. Remove the leaves to a paper towel to drain, then repeat the process with the sweet potato and jalapeño strips. (It should take about two minutes to fry the sweet potato and less than a minute to fry the pepper.)
  • Remove roasted vegetables from the oven and place them into a food processor along with the nutmeg, ginger, vegetable stock, and whipping cream. Transfer the onions, celery, and garlic to the food processor and purée the ingredients until smooth. Adjust seasonings to desired taste.
