    I found the instructions for this recipe to be somewhat unclear. I added some stock to my water from some extra flavour, but I still found the soup lacking flavour. I also found the soup a little thick (even with an extra 100g of water), so i would add more liquid.

    No indication of when to add carrot, however I would assume it goes in the basket with sweet potato. I found this way too sweet and a little bland. Perhaps some onion or substituting some of the sweet potato with regular potato may not make it so sweet?

    does the carrot go in the steamer basket with the sweet potato?
