A creamy and flavorful sweet potato soup with savory smoked Portuguese sausage, brightened with lime or lemon juice, and served with crispy garlic crostini.
In a large pot, over medium heat, saute your onion until translucent. Then add your leeks, garlic and fennel. Cook until softened. Next, add your sweet potatoes and chicken stock. Bring to a boil and simmer until everything is soft. Then blend until smooth. Add 1/2 a lemon or lime juiced and salt and pepper to taste. Next, add your sliced sausage. Cook until heated through.
For the Crostini: Lay your thinly sliced baguette on a baking pan. Rub the slices with a garlic clove cut in half. Then drizzle with olive oil and season with salt. Bake at 400°F for about 10 minutes.
Ladle soup into a bowl and top with a few crostini. Garnish with fennel or green onions. Enjoy!
