           Stephen Ceideburg
    500 g  White fleshed sweet potatoes
      2 tb Olive oil
      1    Onion, finely chopped
      4    Tomatoes
    900 ml Beef stock
    1/2 bn Fresh coriander leaves
 
  If you serve this to guests it is odds on no-one will know what the
  soup is based on. It is also a good bet that there will be takers for
  seconds.
  
  Wash, peel and cut into chunks 500 g white-fleshed sweet potatoes and
  boil until tender. Drain well and set aside.
  
  Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large saucepan and saute 1 onion,
  finely chopped, until transparent. Meanwhile pour boiling water over
  4 tomatoes in a bowl, leave for 2 minutes and drain. Peel the
  tomatoes (the skin will pull off easily) and chop them. Add tomatoes
  to the onions and cook for about 5 minutes until soft.
  
  Into a blender or food processor put the sweet potatoes and the tomato
  mixture. Add 300 ml beef stock and puree. Return to the saucepan, add
  a further 600 ml stock, adjust seasoning to taste and reheat. Finely
  chop half a bunch of coriander leaves. Ladle the soup into bowls and
  scatter the coriander over the top.
