- Roast potatoes and onions for 15 to 20 minutes or until edges are beginning to turn brown.
- Add cooked potatoes and onion to a large soup pot. Peel roasted pepper and chop finely. Add roasted pepper, stock, chipotle, cumin, sage and remaining salt.
- Bring to a simmer until sweet potatoes are very soft, about 15 minutes.
- Using a regular blender or an immersion blender, carefully blend soup until smooth. Add cream and adjust seasoning as needed.
