Instructions
Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C) and line baking sheet with parchment paper to avoid stickiness.
Place sweet potato halves cut-side down on the sheet, drizzle with oil, and roast for 25-30 minutes until soft. Let cool slightly before scooping.
Scoop the sweet potato flesh into a bowl and discard skins.
In a pressure cooker on sauté mode, melt butter and cook diced onion and celery for 5-7 minutes until softened.
Stir in garlic, oregano, ginger, cumin, salt, and pepper. Sauté 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Add sweet potato flesh and stock. Seal pressure cooker and cook for 10 minutes.
Let pressure release naturally. Open lid, stir in coconut milk, and blend with immersion blender until smooth. Adjust seasoning if needed.
Notes
Use roasted sweet potatoes for best flavor. Add a drizzle of cream or dollop of yogurt when serving for extra richness.
