Sweet Potato and Red Lentil Bisque Recipe

Step 1Place sweet potatoes, lentils, apricots, onion, chili paste, and broth in a large pot. Bring to a boil over high heat, reduce to low heat, cover, and simmer until lentils are falling apart, about 25 minutes. Let soup sit, uncovered, 10 minutes.

Step 2Add coconut milk. Using a blender, puree soup until smooth, in batches if necessary. Stir in salt and pepper, and add more if desired.

Step 3To serve: Divide pureed soup among bowls, and top each with cilantro and pomegranate juice or seeds (if using).
