Ingredients
- 1 small onion, diced (1/2-inch pieces)
- 4 garlic cloves, freshly minced
- 1 large head roasted garlic
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 4 cups vegetable broth
- 1 teaspoon salt, divided
- 1 tablespoon fresh chopped parsley
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 4 large potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch chunks
- Optional garnish: chopped parsley, croutons, grated cheese
Instructions
- Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add diced onion and cook for 8 minutes until soft and translucent.
- Add minced garlic and 1/2 teaspoon salt; stir 1 minute until fragrant, careful not to brown.
- Add vegetable broth, potato chunks, remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt, and parsley. Bring to boil, reduce heat, and simmer 15–20 minutes until potatoes are tender.
- Add roasted garlic cloves, stirring gently. For chunky soup, mash about 1 cup of potatoes and return. For smooth soup, blend with immersion blender.
- Taste and season with black pepper and additional salt if needed.
- Ladle into bowls and garnish with optional parsley, croutons, or grated cheese. Serve warm.
Notes
- Use starchy potatoes like Russets or Yukon Golds for creamy texture.
- Vegetable broth can be substituted with chicken broth or water with bouillon cubes.
- Adjust garlic according to preference; extra roasted garlic adds richness.
- Soup keeps 5 days in fridge or up to 3 months frozen; reheat gently, adding liquid if needed.
