1-1/2 pounds sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch chunks
2 cups water
1 (14-1/2-ounce) can vegetable or chicken broth
1 cup half-and-half
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/2 cup sour cream
1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill
Recipe
1. In a large saucepan, bring sweet potatoes, water and broth to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to low and cook until tender, about 15 minutes.
2. Transfer sweet potatoes and about 1 cup broth to a blender or food processor. Reserve remaining broth mixture. Process sweet potato mixture until smooth; return to saucepan with remaining broth mixture.
3. Add half-and-half, nutmeg, salt and pepper. Bring just to a boil. Divide among soup bowls; top each with some sour cream and dill and serve.
