In a large soup pot, heat the oil over medium heat. Stir in the garlic and thinly sliced red onions, and saute for about 2 minutes. Stir in sweet potatoes and carrots; cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Add the water and turn the heat up to high and bring the water to a rolling boil. After 5 minutes of boiling, lower the heat and continue to cook for approximately 30 minutes. During this time, add the seasonings. Turn off the heat and let stand to cool for about 10 minutes.
