Ingredients
- 1 head of garlic
- 4 medium potatoes peeled and diced
- 1 medium onion finely chopped
- 4 cups vegetable broth
- 1 cup coconut milk or any plant-based milk
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt adjust to taste
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon thyme or rosemary optional
- Chopped chives or parsley for garnish optional
Instructions
- Roast the Garlic: Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Cut the top off the head of garlic, drizzle with olive oil, wrap in foil, and roast for 30-35 minutes until soft and caramelized.
- Sauté Aromatics: In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent (about 5 minutes).
- Cook the Potatoes: Add the diced potatoes and vegetable broth to the pot. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender.
- Blend the Soup: Squeeze the roasted garlic cloves into the pot. Use an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth, or transfer it in batches to a blender.
- Add Creaminess: Stir in the coconut milk and heat gently over low heat. Adjust seasoning with salt, pepper, and herbs if using.
- Serve: Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with chopped chives or parsley. Serve hot with crusty bread or crackers.
