SWEET POTATO JALAPENO SOUP



Sweet Potato Jalapeno Soup image

This recipe comes from a wonderful little community called Homestead Heritage outside of Waco, TX. This spicy, creamy, smoky soup is a favorite of everyone who tries it and I'm pleased to say that they share their recipes! I entered this soup into our churches Souper Bowl contest and it won the Hot Stuff award! Notes to add: 1. I used about 5.5 lbs sweet potatoes and it was still very spicy. If you want to make it mild or kid friendly, cut way back on the jalapenos and just place them in a bowl as a side. 2. To sweeten it, I have found that 2 Tbsp brown sugar does the trick. 3. This soup freezes beautifully! You won't be disappointed in this soup!

  • 5. Puree the soup in batches in a blender until creamy. WARNING: Do small batches in the blender ON LOW to avoid burning yourself! The hot liquid jumps up and can overflow on high.

Provided by barbsjustagirl

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 lbs sweet potatoes
4 cups chicken broth, or 4 cups water with 4 cubes chicken bouillon
1 medium onion, chopped
3 garlic cloves, minced
5 slices bacon
6 tablespoons butter
1/4 cup jalapeno
2 teaspoons cumin
1/2 cup chopped cilantro
1/2 cup half-and-half
salt and pepper to taste

Steps:

  • First, preheat your oven to 400 degrees, rinse off your jalapenos, wrap in foil, and throw them in for 20 minutes. Then take them out and give them a rough chop. Scrub your sweet potatoes and cut them in half. Bring a large pot of water to boil and add in sweet potatoes. Boil until you can stick them and they are soft. Drain and let them cool until you can handle them. Peel off the skin, set aside. While potatoes are cooling, add butter to the soup pot over medium-high heat. Add onion, saute until onions are translucent, add garlic and saute about one more minute. Cook your bacon separately in the microwave, oven, or in a skillet. When cooked, break 3 of the slices into pieces and add to the onions and garlic. Add chicken broth to the pot, cover and bring to a boil. Slice the peeled sweet potatoes into bite sized pieces and add to the soup pot. Add jalapenos, cumin, cilantro, and half-and-half. Stir into soup. Sprinkle with a little salt and pepper. Use your immersion blender or regular blender, to blend all the ingredients until they are smooth with no lumps. Add salt and pepper to taste. Sprinkle remaining bacon and some cilantro on top.

Tips:

  • To save time, use pre-cooked sweet potatoes or canned pureed sweet potatoes.
  • For a smoother soup, blend it until it reaches your desired consistency.
  • If you like a spicy soup, add more jalapeños or a pinch of cayenne pepper.
  • Garnish the soup with sour cream, crumbled bacon, or chopped cilantro before serving.
  • Serve the soup with a side of crusty bread or crackers for dipping.
