Sweet Potato Soup with Chicken and Pineapple

-3 sweet potatoes chopped

-1 medium onion

-3 chicken breasts cut into chunks

-3 tablespoons chili powder or fresh chili peppers chopped (2-3)

-3 tablespoons yellow thai curry

-1 tablespoon cumin

-4 cups of veggie/chicken broth

-4-5 lime leaves

-lemon grass chopped (about 2 tablespoons)

-coconut milk

-1/2 a fresh pineapple chopped into chunks

-3 tablespoons soya sauce or tamari

-lime juice (squeeze as serving)

-top with cilantro

-in a large pot (I use my dutch oven) on medium heat add chicken and onions.  When the chicken is cooked add sweet potatoes, allow to cook until soft.  Add broth, spices, and allow to cook until sweet potatoes are soft and break easily.  Then add coconut milk, pineapple and soya sauce.  Allow to cook.  Taste and add more spices depending on your own taste.  I simmered on low for about 3-4 hours, it was a chilly day in Toronto.
