- 1 large sweet potato (12 ounces; 350 g) shopping list
- 1 large leek, white and light green parts (5 ounces; 140 g) shopping list
- 1 bunch spinach (8 ounces; 225 g) shopping list
- 1 large bunch green chard (12 ounces; 350 g) shopping list

How to make it
- Chop the onion and cook it slowly in the olive oil with a sprinkle of salt, stirring now and then, over low heat until it is soft and golden, about half an hour.
- Meanwhile, peel and dice the sweet potato and put it in a large soup pot with 4 cups (1 liter) water and a teaspoon of sea salt.
- Thoroughly wash the leek, spinach, and chard, chop them coarsely, and add them to the pot, along with the chopped ginger.
- Bring the water to a boil, then lower the heat and simmer the soup, covered, for 30 minutes, or until the vegetables are completely tender.
- Add the caramelized onions when they are ready.
- When the vegetables are soft, add the vegetable broth (you can add less if you like a thicker soup) and decide whether you want your soup chunky, like this, or smooth.
- If the latter, puree the soup in a blender, in batches, or with an immersion blender until it is smooth.
- Stir in 2 teaspoons of the lemon juice and a few grinds of black pepper.
- Taste, and correct the seasoning with additional salt or lemon juice.
