(recipe cut from a magazine, not sure which one)
2 large sweet potatoes (1 lb.)
2 green bananas (8 oz.)
1 T. olive oil
1/2 cup chopped onion
1 tsp. freshly ground nutmeg (I used dried)
6 cups vegetable stock
salt and pepper to taste
dash hot pepper sauce
Peel and dice the potatoes and bananas. Heat oil in a saucepan; saute chopped onion until transparent. Add the potatoes and bananas; cook over low heat for five minutes. Sprinkle nutmeg over the vegetables. Add the stock and salt; bring to a boil. Simmer, cover, and cook for 30 minutes. Puree in a blender or food processor. Add pepper sauce and pepper.
(Quite a nice soup. I added some berbere spice blend instead of hot pepper sauce; this gave an additional curry-like heat and savory depth that tempered the sweetness of the soup. Also, I lessened the broth a bit, pouring in what would cover the veggies and adding a little extra. Super easy and unique!)
