A delightful and creamy soup combining the sweetness of pears with the earthy flavor of sweet potatoes.
Melt the butter in a large pot over medium heat.
Using unsalted butter allows you to control the saltiness of the dish.
Add the chopped onion, carrot, and celery to the pot and sauté until softened.
Cut the vegetables evenly to ensure they cook at the same rate.
Stir in the diced sweet potatoes, pears, thyme, and paprika, cooking for a few minutes.
Smoked paprika adds a subtle depth of flavor to the soup.
Pour in the chicken broth and bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer until the sweet potatoes are tender.
Simmering gently helps the flavors meld together.
Blend the soup until smooth using a blender.
Blend in batches if necessary to avoid overfilling the blender.
Return the soup to the pot and stir in the cream, maple syrup, and lime juice. Simmer for a few minutes.
Taste and adjust the seasoning to your preference.
Serve the soup warm, garnished with a drizzle of cream or a sprinkle of fresh herbs.
Serve with crusty bread for a complete meal.
