Subj : St. John 13 To : All From : Dave Drum Date : Wed Jun 23 2021 09:16:00 MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06 Title: John's Sweet Potato Soup w/Chilies Categories: Potaotes, Soups, Chilies, Dairy, Citrus Yield: 4 Servings 2 tb Butter 2 ts Cumin seed 1 lg Onion, minced 4 cl Garlic; minced 2 sm Sweet potatoes; peeled, - diced 2 1/2 c Chicken stock or broth 1/2 c Cream Juice of two limes 1 Chipotle; seeded, minced 4 oz Can chopped green chilies Salt & pepper 2 tb Chopped cilantro Crushed tortilla chips; to - serve Heat butter in a pot, add cumin seed and toast for one minute, stirring often. Add onion and garlic and saut until onion is transparent. Add potatoes, stock and cream. Cook on medium heat until the potatoes are tender. Add lime juice and chilies. Puree with a hand blender until smooth. Add salt and pepper, then stir in cilantro. Serve with crushed tortilla chips. Notes: Could garnish with a dollop of sour cream and a lime slice. Can be served chilled but I enjoyed it warm. This is a creamy soup and it is essential to use a hand blender. I have made this and it is unbelievable that something so easy to prepare can taste so wonderful. Ten minutes of cooking should result in tender potatoes depending on how finely they were diced. If this doesn't generate compliments from your dinner guests they don't have any taste buds and shouldn't be invited back. I used vegetable stock to make a vegetarian version but the cream and butter would disqualify this from being vegan. This will make 4 generous servings or six smaller servings.

I've had an elegant sufficiency; any more would be a superfluity. --- MultiMail/Win32 v0.49 * Origin: SouthEast Star Mail HUB - SESTAR (1:3634/12) .
