This is gourmet delicious! I substituted paprika for the chili flakes (being out of chili flakes).

Hi Raymond,
Thanks for your comment! The vegetables don’t need to be drained. Cooking them in the water flavours the soup without the need to add stock. Let me know how it turns out for you! Christie

This may seem like a stupid question, but once the potatoes and parsnips are cooked, are they drained or does one process them with the water?

I knew it was coconut milk! Just kidding. Thanks for the recipe. I love the combination of coconut milk and chilies.

Hello again!

Christie, this recipe was fantastic! I literally *just* made it and everyone in the house sampled some (I made it to freeze for a quick meal on the run) and they all loved it! ( They were all surprised a 17 year old boy could actually plan ahead for meals haha) Such a nice balance of sweet, spicy and creamy.

Thank you so much for the recipe! I’m definitely making this again! So easy and so delicious!

Thanks again!

You won me over with the sweet potatoes. What a lovely, lovely soup.

Parsnips, now there’s a veggie I’ve never tried! I really like the combo of sweet and savory in this soup :).

Tim – I think a turnip would add a really nice flavour. Just make sure that the main vegetable is sweet potato and you should be fine! Best of luck. Would love to know how it turns out!

Grace – Hmmm, no big bum talk around here! Enjoy the soup. ;)

well, this meets all my criteria–quick, healthy, effortless, and delicious. my lazy (and over-sized) bum thanks you. :)

This looks absolutely fantastic! I just went out and got all the ingredients so I can make it tomorrow. Thank you for the great post!

Oh and a small question: I have a spare turnip on hand, is it possible to add that to the soup or would it completely ruin the flavor? I’m never worked with a turnip before so you’ll need to excuse my stupidity ^^; *not very smart sometimes*

JS – Me too! Love ‘em.

Lorraine – You’re welcome. That potato stuffed bread you made is amazing!

Noble Pig – Love your Potato Ho Down event.

Laura – Please do! Parsnip makes it even sweeter.

Helen – Mmm crispy potatoes – we’re flavour twins, aren’t we?

Leslie – Thanks! Love your recent video post – hilarious!

Olga – Butternut sounds good too, will have to try it.

This is a great idea! I’ve made butternut soup before, and sweet potato sounds like it’d be just as good.
