Easy Creamy Sweet Potato Soup image

This is one of my signature dishes. I made this recipe when I was 12 years old. If you want to use potato instead of sweet potato, replace the coconut milk with cow's milk. Add your favorite herbs and spices for added flavor, or just prepare it as stated.

I love this soup! It's so creamy and flavorful. I always add a little extra ginger and garlic to give it a bit of a kick. It's the perfect comfort food for a cold winter day.

Easy to make and delicious! I used vegetable broth instead of chicken broth and it turned out great. I also added a bit of cayenne pepper for a little kick. Will definitely make this again!

This soup was a hit! I made it for a dinner party last night and everyone raved about it. The flavor was creamy and sweet, with just the right amount of spice. I will definitely be making this again.
