YAM SOUP WITH CORIANDER

Steps:

• Mix yogurt, cilantro and garlic in small bowl. Cover and refrigerate.
• Preheat oven to 400°F. Spray large baking sheet (preferably nonstick) with vegetable oil spray. Arrange yams in single layer on prepared baking sheet. Roast until bottom sides of yam slices are brown, about 20 minutes. Turn yams over and roast until tender, about 15 minutes longer.
• Meanwhile, combine 2 cups milk and coriander in heavy medium saucepan. Bring to simmer. Reduce heat to very low; cover and cook 10 minutes. Remove from heat.
• Combine yams and milk mixture in processor. Puree until smooth. Return to same saucepan. Stir in remaining 13/4 cups milk and bring to simmer, thinning with more milk, if desired.

POTATO/YOGURT SOUP

Steps:

• First peel and slice potatoes and rinse in cold water.
• Place potatoes in a heavy large pan and cover with water, just to cover.
• Boil until soft but not mushy.
• Pour about half of the water off of the potatoes, but save half, the starch that boils off the potatoes helps the soup to thicken and holds more nutrients.
• Add yogurt and spices and simmer 5-10 minutes to let the flavors mingle, and serve.
• I like a little shredded cheese in mine, Grew up with Cheddar, but like Mozzarella now.
