Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons Butter
• 1 large Yellow onion, finely diced
• 3 Garlic cloves, minced
• 3 medium Russet potatoes, peeled and diced
• 1 medium Carrot, peeled and diced
• 1 large Celery stalk, diced
• 6 cups Chicken or vegetable broth
• 0.5 cup White rice
• 1 Bay leaf
• 0.5 teaspoon Dried thyme
• 0.5 cup Heavy cream (optional)
• 1 teaspoon (or to taste) Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon (or to taste) Ground black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Chopped fresh parsley (for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

In a large pot, melt the butter over medium heat.

Step 2

Add the diced onion and sauté for 5-7 minutes until translucent and fragrant.

Step 3

Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes.

Step 4

Add the diced potatoes, carrot, and celery to the pot. Stir and sauté for another 3-4 minutes.

Step 5

Pour in the chicken or vegetable broth, ensuring the vegetables are fully submerged.

Step 6

Stir in the white rice, bay leaf, and dried thyme. Bring the mixture to a boil.

Step 7

Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let it simmer for 25-30 minutes, or until the potatoes and rice are tender.

Step 8

Remove the bay leaf and use an immersion blender to blend part of the soup for a creamier texture, leaving some chunks intact. Alternatively, remove 2 cups of the soup, blend it in a countertop blender, and return it to the pot.

Step 9

If using heavy cream, stir it into the soup at this stage and allow it to heat through for 2-3 minutes.

Step 10

Season the soup with salt and ground black pepper to taste.

Step 11

Serve the soup hot, garnished with chopped fresh parsley.
