Preparation

  1. 1

    Sauté the Base Ingredients

    In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes until translucent. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.

  2. 2

    Add Vegetables

    Add the diced carrots, celery, and potatoes to the pot. Stir well to combine with the onion and garlic mixture.

  3. 3

    Pour in Broth

    Pour the vegetable broth into the pot, ensuring all vegetables are submerged. Bring the mixture to a boil over high heat.

Cooking

    Simmer the Soup

    Once boiling, reduce the heat to low. Add the dried thyme, oregano, bay leaf, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes. Cover and let the soup simmer for 20-25 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender.
