Description
A cozy, delicious soup featuring silky potatoes and sweet caramelized onions, perfect for a comforting meal with minimal effort.
Ingredients
- 4 large potatoes, peeled and diced
- 2 large onions, thinly sliced
- 4 cups vegetable broth
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme or 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 bay leaf
Instructions
- Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add sliced onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until caramelized, about 15-20 minutes.
- Add the diced potatoes, vegetable broth, salt, pepper, thyme, and bay leaf to the pot.
- Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 25-30 minutes, until the potatoes are tender.
- Remove the bay leaf and use an immersion blender to blend the soup until smooth. If you prefer a chunkier texture, blend only half of the soup.
- Adjust seasoning to taste and serve warm.
Notes
Caramelizing onions slowly is key for maximum flavor. Add cooked leeks or carrots for extra bulk if desired.
