Preparation

  1. 1

    Chop the Vegetables

    Dice the carrots, celery, onion, potatoes, and tomatoes into small, uniform pieces to ensure even cooking.

  2. 2

    Mince the Garlic

    Peel and finely mince the garlic cloves.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onions, carrots, and celery. Sauté for about 5 minutes until they start to soften.

  2. 4

    Add Garlic and Potatoes

    Stir in the minced garlic and diced potatoes. Cook for an additional 3 minutes.

  3. 5

    Add Tomatoes and Broth

    Add the diced tomatoes and vegetable broth to the pot. Stir well to combine.

  4. 6

    Season the Soup

    Add the dried thyme, bay leaves, salt, and black pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil.

  5. 7

    Simmer

    Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let the soup simmer for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.

  6. 8

    Finish with Fresh Herbs

    If using fresh parsley, chop it finely and stir it into the soup just before serving.
