Ingredients
To create this delicious soup, you will need the following ingredients:
- 4 medium-sized potatoes, peeled and diced
- 1 large onion, chopped
- 3 cloves of garlic, minced
- 4 cups vegetable broth
- 1 cup coconut milk (or any plant-based milk)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon fresh dill, chopped (plus more for garnish)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Optional: Croutons for topping
Instructions
Follow these simple steps to prepare your Creamy Potato Soup with Dill:
- In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes.
- Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, ensuring that it does not burn.
- Stir in the diced potatoes and vegetable broth. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for about 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender.
- Once the potatoes are cooked through, carefully blend the soup using an immersion blender until smooth, or transfer batches to a blender but allow steam to escape. Add the coconut milk and chopped dill, blending until fully incorporated.
- Season the soup with salt and pepper to taste. Let it heat through for another 5 minutes.
- Serve hot, garnished with extra dill and croutons if desired.
