Recipe With Sweet Potato And Coconut Milk
With only a handful of ingredients this sweet potato soup comes together in just 40 minutes! It’s also naturally vegan and gluten free!
There are many recipes that sweet potato is great for (it features a lot on the blog!) but when autumn starts all I want to do is turn it into cosy soups.
But not just any old soup, it has to be one packed with flavour. And that’s where the spices come in! Curry powder, garam masala, turmeric, ginger, cumin and chilli powder.

This mix of spices together with the creamy coconut milk and sweetness of the sweet potato is a dream combination. I’m pretty certain you’ll be going for seconds!
In a large pot/pan heat 1/2 tbsp of coconut oil on medium heat. Once melted add the finely chopped red onion and fry for a few minutes before adding crushed garlic.
Once the onion is soft and translucent add the spices. Give it a good stir and fry for about 20 seconds until fragrant.

Now it’s time to add the sweet potato, coconut milk and stock. This is left to simmer for bout 20 minutes until the sweet potato is soft through, use a knife to check.
I used three medium-large sweet potatoes, which was about 1kg/2.3lb. Peel them and then cut into 1.5 inch chunks. I cut the sweet potatoes into discs and then into cube sized pieces.
It doesn’t really matter what size you cut them into just bear in mind it will affect the cooking time. You also want to make sure you are picking the orange skinned variety not the white.

Whilst the soup is cooking it’s time to make the toasted coconut flakes. These add some texture to the soup and they taste so delicious!
In a dry frying pan on low-medium place the coconut flakes in a even layer and toast for a few minutes on each side until lightly golden! Keep an eye on them as you don’t want them to burn.
Once the sweet potato is soft through we can blend it. I use a hand held blender for this so I don’t have to transfer it to a blender. But if you don’t have one use the latter!
Vegan Sweet Potato Soup With Coconut Milk
Add the juice of one lime and add salt and pepper to taste. I find I don’t need to add much salt as the vegetable stock already has salt in.
Serve and top with the coconut flakes, chopped fresh coriander, drizzle of vegan cream and some extra chilli powder (if you like it hot!). It would also be delicious with some toasted sourdough (or gf bread) for more of a meal!

Sweet Potato Soup With Coconut & Corn
Curries are usually a blend of spices that are often regionally specific. They come in powders and pastes and very in spiciness. Yellow the mildest, and green the spiciest. The yellow gets it's colour from turmeric, the green gets it's colour from cilantro and Thai basil and the red, from red chillies.
Once the onions and chili have infused add the sweet potato and then the vegetable stock. It all comes to the boil until the sweet potatoes are cooked.
Chef's Pro Tip: Because hot foods blend better, puree the soup in a blender before you add the room temperature coconut milk to ensure that you get a really smooth consistency. This also has the added benefit of ensuring that you get the exact consistency that you're after.
Thai Coconut Soup With Sweet Potato
As you can see in the above photo, the soup when blended before the coconut milk is added, is a very thick consistency. More like a thick puree than a soup. Adding the coconut milk is what brings the sweetness from the sweet potato and the fragrant spice from the Thai chilli paste together.
I wanted to keep this soup really simple so that the Thai curry really shines through and so that it's really easy to make on a busy weeknight, or even for freezer filling. With that in mind I kept the ingredient list pretty short:
