Yield Makes 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 3

6 large shallots, peeled and halved lengthwise
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
1 1/2 pounds medium Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled and quartered

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400°F with rack in lowest position.
  • Toss shallots with 1 1/2 tablespoon oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a 13-by 9-inch baking pan, spreading evenly.
  • Roast, stirring occasionally, until shallots are golden, about 30 minutes.
  • Toss potatoes with remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a bowl, then add to shallots.
  • Roast, turning occasionally, until vegetables are tender and potatoes are crusty, 40 to 50 minutes.

Tips:

  • Use starchy potatoes: For a creamy and thick soup, it's recommended to use starchy potatoes such as Russet, Yukon Gold, or Idaho potatoes.
  • Caramelize the shallots: To enhance the flavor of your soup, caramelize the shallots by cooking them slowly over low heat until they are golden brown and sweet.
  • Use a good quality stock: The type of stock you use will greatly impact the flavor of your soup. Opt for a flavorful stock, such as chicken or vegetable stock. You can also use homemade stock for a richer taste.
  • Don't overcook the soup: Keep an eye on the soup and avoid overcooking it. Overcooked potatoes can become mushy and lose their flavor.
  • Season to taste: Adjust the seasonings according to your preference. Adding herbs like thyme or rosemary can enhance the flavor profile of the soup.
  • Garnish before serving: For a more visually appealing presentation, garnish the soup with fresh herbs such as parsley or chives, or a drizzle of olive oil.
