- 1 tablespoon butter
- 3 potatoes peeled and chopped into 1 to 1½ inch pieces
- 1 onion diced
- 3 to 4 cloves garlic minced
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 (796mL) can peeled whole tomatoes with tomato juices
- 1 teaspoon dried basil
- 2 to 2½ cup broth
- basil optional garnish
- parmesan optional garnish
Melt the butter in oil over medium heat in a dutch oven or heavy-bottomed pot. Add the onions and cook for 4 to 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for another minute before adding the salt.
Add the diced potatoes, canned tomatoes with juices, broth, and dried basil to the pot and bring it to a boil.
Simmer the soup for 30 to 40 minutes (until the potatoes can be easily pierced).
Using an immersion blender, blend the soup until smooth. Add additional salt and pepper, if desired.
Serve with some fresh basil and parmesan, if desired.
