Ingredients

Scale

Gather these ingredients to make your Carrot Potato Soup:

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

  • 1 onion, chopped

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1 pound carrots, peeled and chopped

  • 1 pound potatoes, peeled and chopped

  • 6 cups vegetable broth or water

  • 1 teaspoon salt, or to taste

  • ½ teaspoon black pepper, or to taste

  • Optional toppings: fresh parsley, chives, croutons, a swirl of cream or coconut milk, a sprinkle of paprika

Instructions

Here’s how to make Carrot Potato Soup:

  1. Sauté the Aromatics: Heat the olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.

  2. Add Carrots and Potatoes: Add the chopped carrots and potatoes to the pot. Stir to combine with the onion and garlic.

  3. Add Broth or Water: Pour in the vegetable broth or water, making sure the vegetables are covered. Add the salt and pepper.

  4. Simmer: Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 20-25 minutes, or until the carrots and potatoes are tender.

  5. Blend: Remove the pot from the heat and let the soup cool slightly. Use an immersion blender to blend the soup until smooth and creamy. Alternatively, you can carefully transfer the soup to a regular blender in batches, being cautious with hot liquids.

  6. Adjust Seasoning: Taste the soup and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed.

  7. Serve: Ladle the Carrot Potato Soup into bowls and garnish with your favorite toppings, such as fresh parsley, chives, croutons, a swirl of cream or coconut milk, or a sprinkle of paprika.
