I found this soup to be a bit bland. I think it could use some more seasoning.

This soup is a little too spicy for my taste, but I think I just added too much harissa. Next time I'll use less.

I'm not a huge fan of sweet potatoes, but this soup was surprisingly good. The coconut milk and harissa really balance out the sweetness of the potatoes.

This soup is a great way to use up leftover sweet potatoes. I always have a few extra sweet potatoes lying around after Thanksgiving, and this soup is a great way to use them up.
