_{***Ingredients that we don't usually think about can sometimes be very confusing when it comes to turning them into delicious dishes. This time, an unusual super dish became my alternative at home.***}

I had sweet potatoes and was confused about what to cook, so I thought of my husband, who really likes creamy, spicy dishes. So I tried this recipe, which is very simple and one of the best recipes for my husband and I's dinner menu.

At first glance, it looks similar to curry soup, but this dish has an extraordinary flavor. This dish is a side dish that is enjoyed with white rice, so I cooked the soup according to my husband's taste. ![20260120_122555.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/nurfay/23xyhgHbwFJGF9SE7yjWkeo824rzsd3osniqNysgpufWL5EGdycJJ4tSR2DmvH4UaK4wG.jpg)

It is savory, spicy, and has a slight natural sweetness from the sweet potatoes. The texture is very creamy, and anyone would love it. Especially those of you who are used to making curry dishes like this, but you will definitely feel how delicious it is.

However, what initially made me skeptical was that sweet potatoes, when cooked into a savory and spicy dish, are actually a perfect match. Especially when made into a creamy, savory soup like this, it's incredibly simple. What I like most is that sweet potatoes are excellent when made into a creamy coconut milk soup. Usually, I make them into a sweet dessert called kolak. But as a main dish, it turns out to be incredibly delicious. My husband highly recommends this dish for you to serve anytime.
