Sweet Potato and Rosemary Soup

This chunky and rich soup - the same as in Heinz's tinned version - is made from sweet potato, rosemary and red chilli. Sweet potatoes are a tastier alternative to regular potatoes

Dish Details:heart


INGREDIENTS:


310g sweet potato, peeled and finely chopped
70g onion, finely chopped
70g carrots, peeled and finely chopped
1 large clove garlic, crushed
1 dessertspoon red chilli, deseeded and finely chopped
1 dessertspoon fresh rosemary, finely chopped
345ml water
170ml whipping cream
1 dessertspoon red pepper, deseeded and finely chopped
salt and freshly ground black pepper

Tip from Liz Trigg, cookbook writer and Heinz chef
Rosemary is a very strong tasting herb. When using it in recipes always strip off the leaves from the barky stem and chop very finely to extract as much flavour as possible.


PREPARATION:
1. Heat the pan, and fry the sweet potato, onion and carrots in a little oil for 5 minutes.

2. Stir in the garlic, chilli and rosemary and cook for 2 minutes.

3. Pour in the water and cook for 10 minutes.

4. Stir in cream, cook for a further 5 minutes.

5. Puree with hand blender, the add peppers, cook for 2 minutes to soften. Season with salt and pepper.

To make your soup extra special:

To garnish, fry off strips of smoked bacon until crisp and golden, or sprinkle with chopped parsley.
