Ingredients
Scale
- 4 cups chopped russet potatoes (about 4 medium)
- 1 cup diced carrots
- 1 cup diced celery
- 1 medium onion, diced
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 4 cups low-sodium vegetable broth
- 1 cup coconut milk
- 2 sprigs fresh thyme
- 2 tbsp olive oil
Instructions
- In a large pot over medium heat, drizzle olive oil and sauté diced onions until golden brown (about 5 minutes). Add minced garlic and cook for an additional minute.
- Stir in chopped potatoes, diced carrots, and celery. Cook for another 5 minutes to allow the vegetables to absorb the flavors.
- Pour in vegetable broth until the veggies are submerged. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to simmer for about 15-20 minutes until the potatoes are fork-tender.
- Using an immersion blender, puree part of the chowder directly in the pot for creaminess (or blend half in a regular blender and return it to the pot).
- Add coconut milk and fresh thyme; stir well and let simmer for another 5 minutes.
- Serve hot garnished with extra thyme, paired with crusty bread or crackers.
