Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons Butter
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 6 large Garlic cloves
- 1 medium Yellow onion
- 4 medium Russet potatoes
- 4 cups Low-sodium chicken or vegetable broth
- 0.5 cup Heavy cream
- 3 sprigs Fresh thyme
- 1 leaf Bay leaf
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Chopped fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
- 0.5 cup Croutons (optional, for topping)
Instructions
Peel and finely chop the garlic cloves and yellow onion. Peel and dice the potatoes into small cubes.
In a large pot over medium heat, melt the butter with the olive oil.
Add the chopped garlic and onion to the pot. Sauté for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the onion is soft and fragrant but not browned.
Stir in the diced potatoes and cook for another 2 minutes to coat them in the butter and garlic mixture.
Pour in the chicken or vegetable broth. Add the thyme sprigs, bay leaf, salt, and black pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for 20-25 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender.
Remove the thyme sprigs and bay leaf from the soup. Use an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth. Alternatively, carefully transfer the soup in batches to a countertop blender, then return it to the pot.
Stir in the heavy cream and allow the soup to warm through over low heat for 2-3 minutes. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with chopped parsley and croutons, if desired. Serve warm and enjoy!
