Sweet Potato Soup with Ginger and Shrimp

Sweet potato soup - dead easy

September 12th, 2018 | starter

Refined and yet so easy. Ginger, curry and turmeric give this soup that certain something. The shrimp make them suitable for a nice multi-course meal. Of course, it also tastes without shrimp. Lightning fast and just delicious.

Sweet Potato Soup with Ginger & Shrimp

2 sprigs of thyme

2 sprigs of rosemary

2 garlic cloves, pressed in the shell

2 TS olive oil

heat the herbs and garlic in the oil, fry the shrimp in each side for 1-2 minutes

put prawns on skewers and serve with sweet potato soup

And this is how the wife of the captain does it

The soup can be served wonderfully in small mason jars as finger food or on a buffet. Then I place the jars on a hotplate and arrange the shrimp skewers separately on a plate.

Show-Cooking – and I did not shed any tears

„In the show kitchen of Frankfurt book fair it smelled like garlic and vanilla at the same time. It was mouthwatering for the people sitting in front of the cooking area.“ These are the opening words of an article of the December issue of health food magazine „Schrot & Korn“ about my performance in the Gourmet Gallery at Frankfurt book fair. The issue will be published on November 28th, it is available gratis in all German organic markets. And I did not shed any tears at all.
