Ingredients

10 cloves garlic

1 tablespoon olive oil

2 poblano peppers

4 cup sweet potato (white ones), peeled and medium diced

water

4 cups chicken broth

1 cup sweet corn, canned or frozen

1 tablespoon butter

Directions

Preheat the oven to 400º F.

Place the garlic on a piece of aluminum paper and drizzle with olive oil.

Place foil with garlic on a baking sheet and transfer into oven for 40 minutes or until brown and tender.

Mince the garlic and set aside.

Place the poblano chiles over a high flame. This should be done quickly, be careful not to overcook the chilies.

When roasted, place the chiles in a plastic bag for 10 minutes.

The sweat effect allows for easier skin removal.

After peeling the chile, rinse.

Remove the seeds and top and slice chiles into thin slices.

Set aside.

In a medium soup pot, cook diced sweet potato in water for 10-15 minutes or until tender but not mushy.

Drain and discard water.

Return potatoes to pot.

Add chicken broth, sweet corn, butter, chiles and garlic and simmer for 10 minutes.

serve hot.

I have not seen white sweet potatoes. Where can I get them? Recipes sounds really, really good.

Starchy, white-fleshed types are sometimes called batatas or boniatos, from generic Spanish terms for all types of sweet potato.
I bought mine at a whole foods - they are usually right next to the yams. I never really noticed them until I bought them by accident one time and loved them. Also throw them on the barbeque with a little olive oil when I am cooking steak, and get great reviews (from my hubby and friends)

It seems like poblanos tend to vary quite a bit in heat. How much heat do you suggest in this recipe?
