Spicy chicken, coconut and sweet potato soup

I'm in the mood of a healthy and delicious soup. This has oriental influences and the addition of the coconut milk makes it fantastic.  I am simply in love with this easy and amazing recipe! It is so tasty... I simply cannot stop eating it ...

Ingredients:
  • 1.5kg chicken breast (diced)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 onion (diced)
  • 5 garlic cloves (grated)
  • 3 cm ginger (grated)
  • 2 hot peppers (diced)
  • 1/2 tablespoon turmeric
  • 2 tablespoon cumin (powder)
  • 2 tablespoons coriander (powder)
  • 2 big sweet potatoes (peeled and diced)
  • 400ml coconut milk
  • 3l water
  • salt
  • pepper
  • parsley (for decoration)

Directions:
  1. Boil the chicken for 15 minutes and skim the "scum" created on the surface.
  2. Add sweet potatoes and let them boil for another 15 minutes.
  3. Meanwhile, in a pan, pour the olive oil and heat it. 
  4. Add the garlic, onion, ginger and hot peppers and let them cook for a while in the pan.
