Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb 450 g asparagus, trimmed and chopped
  • 3 medium potatoes peeled and diced
  • 1 small onion chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 3 cups 750 ml vegetable broth
  • 1 cup 250 ml unsweetened plant-based milk (e.g., oat or almond)
  • 1 tbsp olive oil or vegan butter
  • 1/2 tsp dried thyme or 1 tsp fresh
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice for freshness
  • 2 tbsp fresh parsley or chives for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Sauté the Aromatics: Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and garlic, and sauté for 2-3 minutes until soft and fragrant.
  • Cook the Vegetables: Add the diced potatoes, chopped asparagus, thyme, salt, and pepper. Pour in the vegetable broth, bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 20 minutes until the vegetables are tender.
  • Blend the Soup: Use an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth and creamy. Alternatively, transfer it in batches to a blender.
  • Finish with Creaminess: Stir in the plant-based milk and lemon juice. Simmer for another 2 minutes to warm through, then adjust seasoning if needed.
  • Serve & Enjoy: Ladle into bowls and garnish with fresh parsley or chives. Serve warm with crusty bread.

Notes

  • For extra richness, add a spoonful of cashew cream or coconut milk.
  • Keep leftovers refrigerated for up to 3 days or freeze for longer storage.
  • White or green asparagus can be used, depending on your preference.
  • You can use either green or white asparagus, depending on your preference
    • Green asparagus has a slightly stronger, earthy flavor and a more vibrant color, making the soup bright and fresh.
    • White asparagus is milder, slightly sweeter, and creates a more delicate, creamy soup.
  • If you want a more intense, spring-like taste, go with green. If you prefer a milder, classic creamy soup, white asparagus is the way to go. You can also mix both for a balanced flavor! 😊
