Serves 4.
Ingredients
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 onion, diced
- 4 cloves garlic, chopped
- 450 g carrots, coarsely chopped
- 1 medium sweet potato, diced
- 1 litre vegetable stock

Method
- Heat the olive oil in a large saucepan and add the onion, carrots, garlic and spices. Cook for a few minutes until the onions are soft.
- Add the stock and simmer with the lid on for about 15 minutes.
- Add the sweet potato and cook for a further 10 minutes or so until the vegetables are tender.
- Stir in the coconut milk and simmer for 5 minutes.
- Take off the heat and allow to cool for a few minutes before pouring into a blender. Blend until smooth.

Variant: in the autumn and winter I sometimes replace the carrots with butternut squash.
