Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 large, diced onion
- 3 minced garlic cloves
- 3 medium, peeled and diced potatoes
- 4 large, diced tomatoes
- 4 cups vegetable broth
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon paprika
- 0.25 cup heavy cream (optional)
- 2 tablespoons, chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.
Add the diced onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes until it becomes translucent.
Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1 more minute until fragrant.
Stir in the diced potatoes and tomatoes, and let them cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Pour in the vegetable broth and bring the mixture to a boil.
Reduce the heat to a simmer, cover the pot, and let it cook for 20 minutes or until the potatoes are tender.
Use an immersion blender to purée the soup until smooth, or carefully transfer it to a blender in batches and blend.
Return the soup to the pot if needed and season with salt, black pepper, and paprika. Stir well.
If using, stir in the heavy cream to add a rich, creamy texture to the soup.
Let the soup simmer for another 2-3 minutes to meld the flavors.
Ladle the soup into bowls, garnish with fresh parsley, and serve hot.
