METHOD
In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium-high heat and sauté chopped onions and sliced apples until soft, about 10 to 15 minutes.
Add minced garlic, sea salt, curry powder, and cayenne pepper, and let cook 1 more minute until fragrant.
Add vegetable broth and mashed sweet potato, and bring to a boil. Remove from heat, and in batches, transfer soup to a blender and puree until smooth.
Return to pot, add chopped kale and cook about 3 minutes until wilted. Stir in coconut milk and brown sugar, and adjust seasoning to taste.
If it thickens as it sits, feel free to reconstitute with some more veggie broth.
