Making Roasted Garlic Potato Soup is simple and requires just a few basic ingredients. Below is a list of ingredients needed for a recipe that serves 4 people:
Ingredients
- 6 medium potatoes, peeled and diced
- 2 heads of roasted garlic
- 1 litre of vegetable broth
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
The key to a perfect soup is to cook the potatoes evenly. Start by roasting the garlic in the oven, wrapping it in foil with a little olive oil. When the garlic is done, it will taste much sweeter and less pungent than raw garlic. At this point, you can add it to the vegetable broth along with the potatoes. Let it cook until the potatoes are soft and easy to mash.
To achieve a velvety consistency, blend the soup with an immersion blender. If you prefer a thicker soup, you can slightly reduce the amount of broth. Remember to adjust the salt and pepper at the end, so as not to overwhelm the delicate flavors of the roasted garlic and potatoes.
