Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 large, diced yellow onion
• 3 medium, peeled and chopped carrots
• 2 medium, chopped celery stalks
• 1 medium, peeled and diced potato
• 1 medium, chopped zucchini
• 3 cloves, minced garlic
• 2 teaspoons ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon ground coriander
• 4 cups vegetable broth
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 1 teaspoon (or to taste) salt
• 0.5 teaspoons (or to taste) black pepper
• 2 tablespoons, chopped (optional for garnish) fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.

Step 2

Add the diced onion, chopped carrots, and celery to the pot. Cook for 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are softened.

Step 3

Stir in the minced garlic, cumin, and coriander, and cook for another 1-2 minutes until the spices are fragrant.

Add the potato, zucchini, and vegetable broth. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for 20 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender.

Step 5

Using an immersion blender, carefully puree the soup until smooth. Alternatively, transfer the soup in batches to a countertop blender, blending until creamy.

Step 6

Stir in the heavy cream, then season with salt and black pepper to taste.

Step 7

Simmer the soup for an additional 5 minutes to heat through, but do not let it boil.

Step 8

Serve the soup hot, garnished with fresh parsley if desired.
