Follow The Directions

01

Step

In a large pot, bring water to a boil. Add the cubed sweet potatoes and cook until tender but still firm, about 15 minutes.

02

Step

Drain the sweet potatoes, let them cool slightly, and then mash them. Set aside.

03

Step

In a medium skillet over medium-high heat, heat the olive oil. Add the chopped Vidalia onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until translucent, about 5 minutes.

04

Step

Pour in the white wine, red wine, and brandy. Simmer for 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.

05

Step

Add the mashed sweet potatoes to the skillet, stirring to combine with the onion and wine mixture.

06

Step

In a separate bowl, dissolve the chicken bouillon cubes in the water. Add this broth to the soup along with the allspice.

07

Step

Simmer for another 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, to allow the flavors to fully develop. [10 minutes]

08

Step

Season to taste with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Serve hot, garnished with a swirl of cream or a sprinkle of fresh herbs if desired.

For a smoother soup, use an immersion blender to puree until desired consistency is reached.
A dash of cream or a dollop of sour cream adds richness. Consider garnishing with toasted pumpkin seeds for added texture.
