SWEET POTATO SOUP (CURRIED KUMARA SOUP)
An easy, creamy soup with just a hint of curry flavor. This recipe uses sweet potato because it is available in the US. In New Zealand they use kumara which is related to the sweet potato. It is a purplish root vegetable that, when peeled and cooked, is a yellow green color and is an important part of the Maori (native New Zealanders') diet.

Steps:
- In a large saucepan sauté onion, garlic, ginger and curry in butter over medium heat until onion is softened, about 5 minutes. Add the sweet potato and cook 1 or 2 minutes without browning. Add the stock and cover. Cook about 10 minutes, until tender.
- Puree the soup with an immersion blender, if available. If not pour solids into a regular blender and puree. Return to pot and thin with milk. Only add enough milk until soup reaches desired consistency.
- When ready to serve, ladle soup into serving bowls. Swirl in a tablespoon of cream or coconut milk into each bowl. Sprinkle a pinch of fresh minced cilantro or minced scallion on top.
KUMARA SOUP
Here's another recipe borrowed from the hub-uk website, where it was originally posted by 'Tallyrand' (who is a chef in NZ). Kumara is the Moari name for Sweet Potato. You could serve this with the Maori Bread recipe I've posted. I've not tried this and number of servings is a 'guestimate'; recipe posted for Zaar World Tour 2005.

- MAKE SOUPPeel kumara and cut into 2-3cm / 1in chunks. Cut cauliflower into florets. Dice onion and crush garlic. Heat oil in a large saucepan on medium. Add onion and garlic and cook until onion is soft (2-3 minutes).
- Stir in curry powder, cumin and turmeric and cook for 1 minute. Add kumara, cauliflower and stock and simmer for 20-25 minutes, until kumara is soft.
- MAKE BREADMeanwhile, combine flour, baking powder, garlic powder and salt in a large bowl. Whisk in olive oil with a fork, then gradually whisk in water to form a sticky dough (only add the full cup if needed). Tip onto a lightly floured surface and knead gently a few times until dough comes together (it will still be quite sticky - don’t over-knead).
- Divide dough into 6 pieces and flatten with the palm of your hand to about 1cm / 0.4in thick. Dust with a little extra flour if needed. Heat rice bran oil in a medium frying pan on medium heat. Fry dough, two at a time, for 2-3 minutes each side until golden brown on both sides and cooked through. Transfer to a cooling rack and sprinkle with a little salt.
