Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 oz olive oil (25g)
  • 2 onions (approx. 450g), peeled and thinly sliced
  • 2 garlic cloves, peeled and minced
  • 1 teaspoon salt (3g)
  • 1 fennel bulb, trimmed and chopped finely
  • 4 medium potatoes (about 900g), peeled and cubed
  • 1/2 teaspoon caraway seeds (1g)
  • 1.5 liters vegetable broth (6 cups)
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • Chives for garnish

Instructions

  1. In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and cook until they become soft and translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in the minced garlic and salt. Cook for an additional minute until fragrant.
  2. Add the chopped fennel bulb to the pot along with the cubed potatoes. Sprinkle in the caraway seeds. Stir well to combine all ingredients.
  3. Pour in the vegetable broth, ensuring all vegetables are covered. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low. Let simmer for about 20 minutes or until potatoes are tender.
  4. Once cooked, use an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth. Alternatively, carefully transfer batches to a countertop blender if you don’t have an immersion blender.
  5. Taste the soup and adjust seasoning with salt and freshly ground black pepper as needed. Ladle into bowls, garnishing each with chives before serving warm.
