Ingredients
Scale
4 large potatoes, peeled and diced
1 medium onion, chopped
4 cloves of garlic, minced
4 cups vegetable or chicken broth
2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese
1 cup heavy cream (or a lower-fat milk alternative)
1 tablespoon fresh thyme or 1 teaspoon dried
1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
Salt and pepper to taste
Olive oil or butter for sautéing
Instructions
In a large pot, heat a tablespoon of olive oil or butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
Next, add the diced potatoes to the pot, along with the broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Let it cook for about 20 minutes or until the potatoes are tender enough to pierce with a fork.
Using an immersion blender, puree the soup until smooth. You can also transfer it to a standard blender in batches if you don’t have an immersion blender.
Stir in the heavy cream and shredded cheddar cheese, allowing it to melt and create a creamy texture. Season with thyme, parsley, salt, and pepper according to your taste.
Once everything is mixed and warmed through, ladle the soup into bowls. Garnish with a sprinkle of fresh herbs or an extra handful of cheddar if desired.
