3. Add the honey to the onions and keep stirring until it starts to become slightly sticky.
4. Add the stock and stir.
5. At this stage add the sweet potato and jalapeno. Bring to the boil and then turn down the heat.
6. Add the tin of coconut milk and stir.
7. Leave simmer for about half an hour or until the sweet potato has softened.
8. While the soup is simmering roast the cashew nuts in a hot oven for 10 minutes. Keep an eye so they don’t burn.
