Sweet Potato and Orange Soup Recipe

Sweet Potato & Orange Soup

Sweet Potato in the shops right now are magnificent – blooming’ huge tubers the size of a small football. I do love them. You can roast them, bake them, make them into pies, part of a casserole etc. But my favorite thing to do with them is to make soup. However, adding the orange juice is a new thing for me. I wasn’t sure that it was going to work, but WOW. The soup was lovely, with just a hint in the background of OJ, and the yogurt make the consistency extra creamy.

Add the vegetable stock and the orange juice and bring it to the boil. Then reduce the heat and simmer for 20 minutes, or until the sweet potatoes and the carrot are tender (the carrots take a little bit longer to cook).

The you either use a stick blender to puree the soup in the saucepan, or else use a blender to get a smooth soup.

Stir in the yogurt and the chopped coriander and finally check and adjust the seasoning with the salt and pepper.

I garnished it with some left over coriander and strips of orange rind.

Death of young puppy aboard United flight triggers United States department inquiry

United Airlines dealt with new reactions on Wednesday regarding a young puppy dog which passed away in-flight soon after an attendant ordered it stored in an overhead box.

The parks once filled with men sprawled under the sun, the bridges littered with used needles and broken glass — they’re mostly empty now. Kids are playing again in Shahr-e-Naw Park. But behind the locked doors and barred windows of the city’s rehab centers, another battle rages — one far more complicated than it looks from the outside.
