Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 1 medium, diced Yellow onion
- 3 minced Garlic cloves
- 3 medium, peeled and diced Potatoes (Yukon Gold or Russet)
- 4 cups, shredded Green cabbage
- 2 medium, diced Carrots
- 2 diced Celery stalks
- 6 cups Vegetable broth
- 2 Bay leaves
- 1 teaspoon Dried thyme
- 0.5 cup Heavy cream (optional)
- 1 teaspoon (adjust to taste) Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon (adjust to taste) Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons, chopped (optional, for garnish) Fresh parsley
Instructions
In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat the butter and olive oil over medium heat until the butter is melted.
Add the diced onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes, until softened and translucent.
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute, until fragrant.
Add the diced potatoes, shredded cabbage, diced carrots, and diced celery to the pot. Stir to combine the vegetables evenly.
Pour in the vegetable broth, and add the bay leaves and dried thyme. Stir well.
Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to low and simmer uncovered for 20-25 minutes, until the potatoes are tender and the cabbage is soft.
Remove the bay leaves, then use an immersion blender to partially blend the chowder for a creamy texture, while leaving some chunks of vegetables for heartiness. Alternatively, transfer about 1/3 of the chowder to a blender, puree, and return it to the pot.
Stir in the heavy cream, if using, and season the chowder with salt and black pepper to taste.
Allow the chowder to simmer for an additional 5 minutes to meld the flavors.
Ladle the chowder into bowls, garnish with fresh parsley (if using), and serve warm with crusty bread or crackers.
