This is a Jamie Oliver recipe and it is absolutely delicious. So simple, but really hearty and warming Very Happy

2 carrots
2 sticks of celery
2 medium onions
2 cloves of garlic
800g sweet potatoes
200g chorizo sausage
a small bunch of fresh parsley
olive oil
1 heaped teaspoon curry powder
2 chicken or vegetable stock cubes, preferably organic
sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 fresh red chili

To make your soup:
Peel and roughly slice the carrots. Slice the celery. Peel and roughly chop the onions. Peel and slice the garlic. Peel and chop the sweet potatoes. Slice the chorizo. Finely chop the parsley leaves and stalks.

Put a large pan on a high heat and add 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Add all your chopped and sliced ingredients with curry powder and mix together with a wooden spoon. Cook for around 10 minutes with the lid askew, until the carrots have softened but are still holding their shape, and the onion is lightly golden.

Put the stock cubes into a jug or pan and pour in 1.8 litres of boiling water from the kettle. Stir until the stock cubes are dissolved, then add to the vegetables. Give the soup a good stir and bring to the boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for 10 minutes, until the sweet potato is cooked through.

To serve your soup:
Season with salt and pepper. Using a hand blender, pulse the soup until smooth and scatter over a little finely chopped chili.
