Categories     Carrot     Cheese     Potato     Soup/Stew

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/4 cup butter
1 large yellow onion, chopped
2 leeks, white and pale-green parts only, rinsed and coarsely chopped
4 cloves garlic, smashed
1 stalk celery, cut into chunks
5 cups (divided) vegetable stock
5 potatoes, peeled and cubed
1 1/4 cups baby carrots, sliced
3 tablespoons green onion, chopped
3/4 cup heavy cream, salt and ground black pepper to taste
6 tablespoons (optional) Cheddar cheese, shredded

Steps:

  • Melt the butter in a large stockpot over medium heat; cook and stir the onion, leeks, garlic, and celery in the melted butter until tender, about 10 minutes.
  • Pour 4 cups vegetable stock into the stockpot; add the potatoes. Bring the mixture to a boil, reduce heat to medium-low, and cook the mixture at a simmer 20 minutes.
  • Divide the stock mixture into 3 batches with equal amounts of liquid and vegetables; set aside to cool for 30 minutes.
  • Pour 1 batch of the stock mixture into a blender, filling the pitcher no more than halfway. Hold the blender lid firmly in place and carefully start the blender; use a few quick pulses to get the mixture moving before leaving it on to puree. Repeat process with second batch. Return the pureed batches to the stockpot.
  • Divide third batch into two equal batches. Puree only one of the two batches before returning both to the stockpot.
  • Bring 1 cup vegetable stock to a simmer in a small pot over medium-low heat. Cook the carrots in the simmering stock until soft, 5 to 7 minutes; add to the puree in the stockpot.
  • Stir the green onion and heavy cream through the puree; continue cooking another 5 minutes.
  • Season with salt and pepper. Top with Cheddar cheese to serve.
