Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 medium Russet potatoes
- 2 medium Carrots
- 2 Celery stalks
- 1 medium Yellow onion
- 2 Garlic cloves
- 4 cups Vegetable broth
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons Fresh dill
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 2 tablespoons All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground paprika
- 1 Bay leaf
Instructions
Peel and dice the potatoes into 1/2-inch cubes.
Thinly slice the carrots and celery. Finely chop the onion and mince the garlic.
Add the potatoes, carrots, celery, onion, garlic, vegetable broth, salt, black pepper, paprika, and the bay leaf into the crock pot.
Stir the ingredients together, cover, and cook on low for 6 hours or until the vegetables are tender.
Once cooked, remove the bay leaf. Use an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth, or leave it slightly chunky, depending on your preference.
Melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Whisk in the flour and cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly, to form a roux.
Slowly whisk the heavy cream into the roux until smooth, and cook for another minute. Add this mixture to the soup in the crock pot and stir well.
Chop the fresh dill and stir it into the soup. Let the soup cook on low for another 10-15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt or pepper, if needed.
Serve hot, garnished with extra dill if desired, alongside crusty bread or a side salad.
