Ingredients:

• coconut milk (200ml)

Kitchen Tools:

• chef’s knife
• cutting board
• potato peeler
• soup pot
• immersion blender

To begin, peel and chop the purple sweet potatoes, beetroot, onion, and black garlic. In a soup pot, sauté the chopped vegetables in a splash of olive oil until they start to soften. Add the black lentils and vegetable broth, then bring the mixture to a simmer. Let it cook for about 20 minutes until the lentils are tender.

Once the lentils are cooked, use an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth. Stir in the coconut milk and season with salt and pepper to taste. Allow the soup to simmer for another 10 minutes to let the flavors meld together.

Serve the soup hot, garnished with a sprinkle of black sesame seeds for a spooky touch. This dish is perfect for a Halloween dinner party or cozy night in. Enjoy the rich, earthy flavors and vibrant colors of this unique soup.

The approximate total weight of the cooked dish is 1200g, with 4 servings. Each serving weighs around 300g and has approximately 250 calories.

One clever tip for this recipe is to roast the beetroot before adding it to the soup for an extra depth of flavor. It adds a subtle sweetness and a smoky undertone that takes this dish to the next level.

I hope you give this Perfectly Spooky Halloween Soup a try and make it your own with your favorite seasonal ingredients. Happy cooking!
