Here's a dead-easy soup idea from the people at Salt Matters who eat a healthy diet without any added salt or salted foods. You first prepare the sweet potato and then add a can of reduced-salt tomato soup to thicken and add flavour.
Ingredients
- 1 kg kumera (orange sweet potato)
- 1 onion
- 2 cloves garlic, crushed
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 cups water
- 425g can reduced-salt tomato soup
- TO SERVE:
- Thick slice of rye or grainy bread (salt-free if this is your diet)
- Chopped fresh parsley or coriander (cilantro)

Directions
1. Peel kumara and chop into pieces.
2. In a large heavy based saucepan, saute the onion and garlic in oil. Add kumera and half the water.
3. Simmer gently until cooked. Puree with a blender or food processor and return to pan.
4. Add the soup to the puree along with the remaining water. Bring to the boil and then simmer until ready. Serve topped with parsley with a chunk of rye or grainy bread.
Variations
Mash with a potato masher for a coarser texture.
