Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Sauté the Aromatics

    In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in the minced garlic and sauté for an additional minute until fragrant.

  2. 2

    Add Vegetables

    Add the diced carrots, celery, and potatoes to the pot. Sauté the vegetables for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they begin to soften.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Simmer the Soup

    Pour in the vegetable broth and add the bay leaves, thyme, salt, and black pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and let it simmer for 20-25 minutes until the vegetables are tender.

  2. 4

    Finish the Soup

    Remove the bay leaves and stir in the fresh parsley. Taste and adjust the seasoning with more salt and pepper if needed.

Serving

  1. 5

    Serve the Soup

    Ladle the soup into cups or bowls. Optionally, top each serving with croutons and grated Parmesan cheese for added flavor and texture.
