Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 large sweet potatoes rinsed, peeled, and diced
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 45 ounces canned black beans drained and rinsed (1 cup set aside)
  • 2 tablespoons cumin
  • 2 teaspoons coriander
  • 4 cups vegetable stock
  • 1 - 2 tablespoons hot sauce (such as Franks)

Instructions

  • In a large dutch oven (or heavy bottomed pot) over medium heat, add the olive oil. Add in the sweet potatoes and season with 1 teaspoon kosher salt and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Cook for about 10 minutes, or until the potatoes are soft, stirring occassionaly.
  • Take the 1 cup reserved black beans and in a bowl mash them with the back of a fork. If need be, you can add a little of the vegetable stock to this to make it easier to mash.
  • Add the black beans, cumin, coriander, vegetable stock, and the hot sauce to the pot. Then stir in the vegetable stock.
  • Bring the soup to a boil and then reduce it to a simmer. You should still be able to see grape sized bubbles. Simmer for 10 minutes. Taste the soup and add more salt, pepper, or hot sauce as desired. Serve and enjoy.
