Spicy West African Peanut Soup (vegan)

We whipped this soup up right before an event in the city, it was a bitterly cold day and thought it would be nice to offer a soup for samples. It was so popular many people asked for the recipe, so here it is. I have made it again since and left out the carrots, adding an extra sweet potato and it was just as yummy.
