  1. START THE SOUP

    Boil the kettle. Place a pot over medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, add the sliced spring onion, the grated garlic, and the grated ginger. Fry until fragrant, 3-4 minutes (shifting constantly). Add the sweet potato pieces, the miso paste (to taste), the stock, and 500ml of boiling water. Simmer until the sweet potato is soft, 15-20 minutes. Place in a blender and blend until smooth. If it’s too thick for your liking, loosen with warm water until the desired consistency. Season and cover.

  2. TO CHEW ON LATER

    While the sweet potato is simmering, place the chopped cashews in a pan over medium heat. Toast until golden brown, 2-4 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan and set aside.

  3. BEAN THERE, DONE THAT

    Return the pan to medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, add the rinsed beans and fry until crispy, 10-12 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan and season.

  4. HAIL THE KALE

    Place the shredded kale in a bowl with a drizzle of oil and seasoning. Using your hands, massage until softened and coated in oil. Return the pan to medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, add the massaged kale and fry until the kale is slightly wilted, 4-5 minutes (shifting occasionally). Season.

  5. BA-GUETTE YOURSELF SOME

    Return the pan to medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, add the baguette rounds, cut-side down, and toast until browned, 1-2 minutes per side. Remove from the pan.

  6. CRISPY TOFU

    Return the pan to high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the tofu slabs until crispy, 3-4 minutes per side. Cut into bite-sized chunks.

  7. SOUP’S UP!

    Bowl up the sweet potato soup. Top with the wilted kale, the crispy beans, and the tofu chunks. Garnish with the toasted nuts. Side with the toasted baguette rounds for dunking. Well done, Chef!
