Excellent vegetarian choice. Slices of lime, chopped cilantro, and unsweetened shredded coconut are garnishes for this Thai sweet potato soup.

Sweet, spicy and super easy to make! Followed to the letter except used a 14oz can coconut milk (vs 1 c). We really enjoyed this! Thanks Nan!
DOPE
I love this soup! My winter CSA has carrots every week, and sometimes sweet potatoes, and so I’ve already made this twice in the last month. So tasty! Just to make life simpler, I add the whole can of lite coconut milk rather than just a cup (less to keep in the fridge). Tastes delicious!
I added Sambal Oelek instead of Sriracha.
Very tasty! I did some modifications based on comments and my family’s limited tolerance to heat. I used tomato paste and curry powder instead of chili paste and siracha. Also used lite coconut milk only because that’s what I had. I added spinach at the end for more chew. Great base recipe for me to work with!
Absolutely awesome recipe!! Easy, flavorful sooooo good. I added a bit of fresh tumeric to the recipe and then topped the finished product with the lime wedge, siracha and fresh cilantro. Ughhhh really yummy. Try it 🙂
This had a really nice flavour, but boy, it was hot! (And we generally like spice.) I would add less sriracha sauce to start.
Delicious!! Loved the consistency and different layers of flavor: sweet, spicy, warm, and savory. We will definitely be making this again!!
This was 5 stars! It has some heat, so be careful if you are sensitive. I followed it as written and I found it to be a very simple recipe to make! Thank you Nan!
