Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 medium yellow onion, chopped
• 3 cloves garlic cloves, minced
• 2 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and diced
• 1 28-ounce can canned diced tomatoes
• 4 cups vegetable broth
• 1 cup coconut milk
• 1 teaspoon dried thyme
• 1 teaspoon ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 6 leaves fresh basil leaves (optional for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.

Step 2

Add the chopped onion and sauté for 5–7 minutes, or until softened and translucent.

Step 3

Stir in the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.

Step 4

Add the diced sweet potatoes, canned diced tomatoes (with their juices), and vegetable broth to the pot.

Step 5

Stir in the thyme, cumin, paprika, salt, and pepper.

Step 6

Bring the mixture to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to low. Cover and simmer for 25–30 minutes, or until the sweet potatoes are completely soft.

Step 7

Remove the pot from heat and use an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth. Alternatively, let the soup cool slightly and blend it in batches using a countertop blender.

Step 8

Return the soup to the pot (if using a countertop blender) and stir in the coconut milk. Warm the bisque over low heat for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Step 9

Taste and adjust seasoning with more salt or pepper, if needed.

Step 10

Serve hot, garnished with fresh basil leaves if desired.
