Cooking steps
1
- Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7.
- Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).
- Halve, peel and chop the onion into small pieces.
- Halve the pepper and discard the core and seeds. Chop into 1cm chunks.
- Chop the sweet potato and carrot into 1cm chunks.
2
- Place a pot over high heat with a drizzle of oil.
- Once the oil is hot, fry the bacon lardons until golden, 3-5 mins, stirring regularly. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and equipment after handling raw meat. Cook lardons thoroughly.
- Remove the lardons from the pot.
- Drizzle with maple syrup and toss to coat.
3
- Return the pot to medium-high heat with a knob of butter.
- When melted, add the onion, pepper, garlic and paprika to the pot and fry until softened stirring occasionally, 4-5 mins.
- Add the sweet potato, carrot, stock, muscat, ½ tsp salt (per 2P) and 500ml water (per 2P).
- Bring to a boil then cover and lower heat to medium.
- Cover and simmer until sweet potato and carrot are fork tender, 15-20 mins.
4
- Once the soup is cooked, add half the creme fraiche and blend until smooth and creamy.
- Season to taste with salt and pepper.
TIP: Add a splash of water if you feel the soup is too thick.
5
- Just before serving, pop the baguettes into the oven to warm through, 2-3 mins.
6
- Divide the soup between bowls.
- Add the remaining creme fraiche on top.
- For a spooky presentation, drizzle the creme fraiche in concentric circles on the soup. Drag a sorcerer's wand (or toothpick) from the centre to the ends, to create a spider's web.
- Top with glazed bacon lardons on the outer side of the spider web.
- Serve with the warm baguette on the side for dipping.
