Method
1. Add the olive oil to a pan on a medium heat and add the onion and carrot, cook for around 5 minutes until softened.
2. Next add the garlic, ginger and chilli and cook for 2 minutes until fragrant. (add a splash more oil if needed)
3. Stir in the sweet potato and cook for a further 2 minutes before adding the vegetable stock, then leave to simmer for around 15 minutes or until the sweet potato is soft.

Chef’s tips
Drizzle in some cream at the end for some extra flavour and serve with crusty bread!
