This soup is a definite try for all sweet potato lovers. The flavours from lime leave, lemon grass, bird eye chili is really gives amazing taste. Because it has sweet potato, chickpea, tofu this can be meal replacer & really good balanced soup with all nutrients and protein.
If you want to serve as starter/ appetizer you can do it too. If you want to avoid Coconut milk you can try with milk too. If you are adding milk add it after switching it off and after it has cool down a bit.
