Ingredients
Scale
4 large onions, thinly sliced
3 medium potatoes, diced (about 1.5 lbs)
4 cups vegetable or chicken broth
2 tablespoons olive oil for caramelizing the onions
2 tablespoons unsalted butter for richness
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon fresh thyme or ½ teaspoon dried thyme
Salt and pepper to taste
Optional: ½ cup heavy cream or coconut cream for a richer finish
Fresh parsley or chives for garnish
Instructions
In a large soup pot or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the thinly sliced onions, sprinkle with a little salt, and stir to coat. Cook, stirring occasionally, for about 25-30 minutes until they’re deeply golden and sweetly fragrant.
Once your onions are beautifully caramelized, throw in the minced garlic and thyme. Cook for an additional minute until the garlic is aromatic but not browned.
Add the diced potatoes to the pot, stirring to mix everything together. Let them sauté for about 5 minutes.
Add the vegetable or chicken broth. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover the pot and let everything simmer for about 20-25 minutes or until the potatoes are tender.
Using an immersion blender, purée the soup until it's smooth and creamy. If using a regular blender, let it cool for a few minutes before blending.
If feeling indulgent, stir in the heavy cream or coconut cream for extra richness. Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper as needed.
Ladle the soup into bowls and sprinkle with fresh parsley or chives. Serve hot.
