1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1/2 cup chopped onion

4 cups cooked sweet potatoes (about 1 large sweet potato)

4 tablespoons minced cilantro
4 tablespoons shredded coconut

1
Heat oil in a 3-quart saucepan or stockpot on medium setting. Add onion and garlic, and saute until tender.
2
Remove mixture to a food processor or blender. Add sweet potatoes and ginger, then puree until mixture is smooth.
3
Return mixture to saucepan. Add coconut milk, chicken stock, salt, soy sauce, lime juice and curry paste. Bring to a simmer, and cook for 15 minutes.

NOTES:
7
instead of blending the whole soup, only blend the onion and ginger. Leave the sweet potato in small pieces. Use an immersion blender to blend some of the potato at the end, but leave the majority of it chunky, so it's more of a broth soup.
8
Add green peas.
9
Not very hot - use more paste.
