Sweet Potato and Red Chilli Soup (In A Soup Maker)

I include sweet potato in quite a few of my soups. Just like ordinary white potatoes, they create a lovely thick texture, but there is something about sweet potatoes that make the soup have an almost velvety feel to it.

This recipe is super simple with only 4 ingredients (discounting the oil and stock). The sweet potato provides ample flavour to not require a lot more. The chilli adds a nice warming kick to it, I tend to add 2 chillies to my soups, but that does make it quite spicy hot, so if you prefer a milder taste, you might want to keep it at one chilli, with seeds removed.
