I’m just going to tell you, the name of this soup is really weird….and kinda gross. If I had seen it in a cookbook, I would have made a nasty face and passed it by as quickly as possible. Curried? Sweet Potato and Carrot curry? EWWW! My great friend, Erinn sent me this recipe with the recommendation that it was awesome. I trust Erinn. I trust her enough to make her nasty sounding Curry Soup – that’s love. And guess what? I loved it! It has an amazing blend of flavors and they all pair together wonderfully! Barry said it was a “girly” soup…..so don’t make this for Super Bowl Sunday. Amen. |

Excellent blog! Do you have any suggestions for aspiring writers?
I’m planning to start my own blog soon but I’m a little lost on everything.
Would you propose starting with a free platform like WordPress or go for a paid option? There
are so many options out there that I’m completely confused ..
Any suggestions? Thank you!
Checking out the blog Blogging With Amy for details like that. 🙂
I made this over the weekend but didn’t have any curry so my thought was that I’d just make it and add the curry on Monday. Doesn’t need it as far as I’m concerned. Totally yummy just as it is!!
I absolutely love this recipe! I don’t make it in a crock pot, and I’ve doubled it, and made a few small changes to it’s consistency, but I’ve been able to convert it to a recipe that can be canned. We add the cream to it when we get ready to serve it because you can’t can with milk products.
Has anyone tried this with vegetable stock and almond milk?
Kelley, I think it would be great that way!
OMG Stacy. I am so glad I found your website. This soup is AMAZING, even with the curry, or maybe because of the curry. I may become a convert. I still have a bunch of sweet potatoes, so will be making a double batch for sure, ASAP. Thanks for posting.
YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 🙂
Google search for a sweet potato soup recipe brought me here. I’m not a curry fan, but then neither are you, apparently, so I’m going to try this recipe. The only problem I have is that you say two large sweet potatoes, but how large is large, to you. Could you tell me an approximate weight, or cup measurement?
Shoot…no, I’ve never measured. 🙁 Maybe like the size of your two fists put together. And no, I’m not a huge curry fan – but this soup is SO good!
OK, thanks. I have found a similar recipe (without the curry) that calls for a similar quantity of carrots and 1 lb of sweet potato, so will go with that weight. I know my husband will like this, as he is a big curry fan. Will let you know how I feel about it, once it’s done.
🙂 Wish I had a big ole bowl right now.
I love my crock and use it all the time. One of my favorites is Charro Beans that my frenid taught me to make while living in TX.1pound of pinto dry beans1large onion roughly chopped2 large fresh tomatoes seeded and chopped1can rotel with green chile1bunch fresh cilantro1 pound bacon chopped and fried up but not cruchy3 chicken breast cooked and shredded (roasted chicken or rotisserie)3 cloves garlic or 1 large heaping tablespoon of chopped garliccumin to tasteone small bottle liquid smokegarlic salt to tastesalt/pepper to taste the last 20 min. of cooking (most of the time you do not need this, so don’t put it in until the last of the cooking if you find that you need a little more)1 1/2 tablespoons of pinto bean seasoningPut all this into the crock and put on high and cook for four hours. Or on slow for six to eight hours. Serve with shredded cheese on top if you like over rice. So good. You can also use ham if you like for the meat. This makes a great meal or side dish. Sometimes I use a 2 pound bag of beans so we can have leftovers. You can also use the leftover beans to make your own refried beans, just add cheese and mash up. Enjoy, now off to put a crock of these on.
Actually I think this sounds really tasty! Sweet root veges work really well with curry flavors. Thanks so much for sharing this recipe with Sunday Night Soup Night! I’ll be hosting every week so I’d love to see you again with your next soup/stock/chowder recipe.
Just don’t serve it to a manly man. 😉
Curry, sweet potatoes, and carrots are so good together. In fact, right before I read this post, I literally just put a crock pot together of those things along with onions, garlic, left over boiled chicken, chicken broth and salt. No other seasonings–just curry and salt. My family loves it. It’s great over rice or quninoa. I have also added garbanzo beans to the mix in the past and yummy!! Thanks so much for your post. I love them!
Yum! Sounds delish!
Mike would LOVE this soup, but I’m with Barry. Doesn’t sound like my kind of thing. You knew I would say that.
Yep. I knew you would. 🙂
