Sweet Potato Chowder

This vegan sweet potato chowder uses a handful ingredients to serve up something warm, delicious and comforting in a matter of minutes. Using the sweet potatoes I got from Market Movers I was able to add a few Pantry Essentials to whip up this dish that takes little effort but yields great results.

Method

1. 1. Add water, sweet potato and olive oil to a pot on medium heat
   2. Season with salt and black pepper to taste and bring to a boil
   3. Cook potatoes for 5 minutes
   4. Toast geera seeds in a separate pan for 2 minutes
   5. As potato begins to soften add geera, garlic powder and paprika

1. Add coconut milk and continue to cook for 3  minutes
2. Mash potatoes and combine with liquid with a fork or potato masher until smooth
3. Transfer to a bowl then add fresh celery
