Ingredients

4 cups chicken broth or broth
1 tablespoon olive oil
4 cups leeks white part only, carefully washed and chopped
1 teaspoon garlic minced
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes ground
2 cups potatoes cut into 1/2 inch cubes, white
1 cup sweet potatoes, or yams cut into 1/2 inch cubes
1 teaspoon curry powder
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1 pinch turmeric to taste
1 x mint sprigs
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 x sweet red bell pepper or green, and yellow, finely chopped, for garnish

Directions

Heat olive oil in a heavy-bottomed saucepan or dutch oven over medium heat.

Add the leeks, garlic, and red pepper and sauté until the leeks are translucent, about 3 to 5 minutes.

Add the chicken stock and bring to a boil.

Add white and sweet potatos, and return to a boil.

Reduce the heat and simmer gently until the potatos are tender, about 20 to 25 minutes.

Cool slightly.

Puree in a blender or food processor until smooth and return to the pot.

Bring the puree to a simmer, then reduce the heat.

Stir in the curry powder, garlic powder, turmeric, lemon juice, and mint.

Simmer for another 3 to 5 minutes until the flavors have mingled.

Serve hot with a sprinkle of chopped peppers.

Serves 6.
