Asparagus Potato Soup

Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 pound asparagus, trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 2 medium potatoes, peeled and diced
  • 4 cups vegetable broth
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1/4 cup fresh chives, finely chopped

Instructions

  1. In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, sautéing until the onion is translucent and fragrant, about 5 minutes.
  2. Add the chopped asparagus and diced potatoes to the pot, stirring to combine. Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes.
  3. Pour in the vegetable broth and bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce the heat, cover the pot, and let it simmer for about 15-20 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender.
  4. Once the vegetables are cooked, use an immersion blender to blend the soup until smooth. If you prefer a chunkier texture, blend only half of the soup and leave the rest as is.
  5. Stir in the heavy cream, and season with salt and pepper to taste. Allow the soup to heat through before serving.
  6. To make the chive cream, combine the chopped chives with a splash of heavy cream, stirring until well mixed. This will serve as a garnish for your soup.
  7. Serve the soup hot, drizzling the chive cream on top for that extra touch of flavor and elegance.

Enjoy this Asparagus Potato Soup with Chive Cream as a satisfying meal on its own or pair it with some crusty bread for a truly comforting dining experience. Bon appétit!
