Fennel and Potato Soup

Aromatic soup ideal for chilly spring days.

INGRIDIENT

3 bulbs fennel - trimmed, quartered, and cored

1 tablespoon butter

1 tablespoon olive oil

3 spring onions, sliced

4 cups vegetable stock, divided

1 large potato, peeled and cubed

¼ cup water, or as needed (Optional)

ground black pepper to taste

DIRECTION

Step: 1

Slice the fennel into medium-size pieces.

Step: 2

Heat butter and olive oil together in a pot over medium-low heat. Add sliced fennel, spring onions, and 1 cup of the stock. Cover and simmer gently for 15 minutes until fennel is soft and translucent.

Step: 3

Pour remaining stock into the pot; add potato. Bring the mixture to a boil, reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer gently until the potato is very soft and cooked through, about 25 minutes. Gently mash vegetables with a potato masher or the back of a wooden spoon until soup is thick and chunky. If soup is too thick, stir in water by tablespoons to your desired consistency. Season with black pepper. Let rest 5 minutes to allow flavors to develop before serving.
