Ingredients

• 12 whole garlic cloves
• 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
• 1 medium yellow onion
• 4 cups vegetable broth
• 1 cup coconut milk
• 1 large potato
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 teaspoon fresh thyme
• 1 whole bay leaf
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 2 tablespoons parsley

Directions

Step 1

Peel and finely chop the garlic cloves and onion. Peel and dice the potato into small cubes.

Step 2

In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and garlic and sauté for about 5 minutes until they become translucent and fragrant.

Step 3

Add the diced potato to the pot and stir well. Cook for an additional 2 minutes, letting the flavors combine.

Step 4

Pour in the vegetable broth and coconut milk, stirring to mix with the other ingredients. Add the salt, black pepper, fresh thyme, and bay leaf to the pot.

Step 5

Increase the heat to high and bring the soup to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover the pot and let it simmer for about 25 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender.

Step 6

Remove the bay leaf from the pot. Use an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth. If you do not have an immersion blender, carefully transfer the soup to a countertop blender, blend until smooth, and then return it to the pot.

Step 7

Stir in the lemon juice, tasting to adjust the seasoning if necessary.

Step 8

Serve the soup hot, garnishing each bowl with freshly chopped parsley.
