In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
Add the diced onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes.
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the chopped carrots, cauliflower florets, and potato to the pot. Stir well to coat the vegetables with the oil.
Pour in the vegetable broth, ensuring that the vegetables are immersed.
Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer.
Cover the pot and let the vegetables cook for about 20 minutes, or until they are tender.
Once the vegetables are soft, remove the pot from heat and allow it to cool slightly.
Using an immersion blender, puree the vegetables until smooth and creamy. Alternatively, transfer the mixture carefully to a blender and puree in batches.
Return the pureed vegetables to the pot and stir in the coconut milk.
Season the puree with salt, black pepper, and chopped thyme.
Warm the puree over low heat for another 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, to ensure even heating.
Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
Serve the creamy vegetable puree in bowls and enjoy as a comforting dairy-free dish.
