Simple, tasty soup (and suitable for vegans too!). Ingredients:
1 onion, chopped
about 5 celery sticks, chopped
about 600g sweet potato, peeled & chopped
1.5 litres of veg stock (I used an oxo cube)
black pepper
a little veg oil
In a large saucepan add the onions & celery to the oil, soften gently. Then add the sweet potato and black pepper.Add the stock, cover & simmer for about half an hour. The sweet potato should now be lovely and soft. Blend the soup, personally I like this soup to be super smooth, but if you prefer you could just blend half the soup. Put the soup back on the heat & ensure it is warmed through, then serve with crusty bread.
