Step 1
Peel and dice the 2 sweet potatoes into 1-inch cubes. Dice the 1 small onion.
Step 2
Heat the 1 tbsp olive oil in a pot over medium heat. Add the diced onion and cook until soft, about 4 minutes.
Step 3
Stir in the 1 tsp ground cumin and 0.5 tsp salt, then add the sweet potatoes and 2 cups vegetable broth. Bring to a boil.
Step 4
Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer until sweet potatoes are tender, about 15 minutes. Mash lightly with a fork for a thicker stew.
Step 5
Taste and adjust salt if needed. Serve hot, optionally garnished with fresh herbs.
