A bowl of Potato Soup on a rainy day is incredibly satisfying!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 
\n2 Tablespoons Olive Oil
\n1 Onion, chopped
\n4 cloves Garlic, crushed
\n2 large stalks of Celery, diced
\n3 litres Vegetable Broth
\n12 medium Potatoes, White or Red, a combination of the two
\n1 Tablespoon Parsley
\n1 1\/2 teaspoons Oregano
\n1 teaspoon ground Sage
\n1 teaspoon ground Thyme
\n1 1\/2 teaspoons Salt<\/p>\n

Freshly ground Pepper, to taste
\nShredded Cheddar Cheese, about 1\/8 cup per serve
\n1 Tablespoon crumbled Bacon Bits for each serve<\/p>\n

Sautee onion over medium high heat for a few minutes.
\nAdd garlic and continue cooking for a few more minutes.
\nAdd diced celery, cook for another 4 – 5 minutes, stirring often.
\nAdd vegetable broth and slowly bring to a boil.<\/p>\n

While bringing the broth to a boil, peel and cube potatoes; carefully add to liquid. (If you prefer, you can leave the skins on and just give them a good scrub)<\/p>\n

Add the spices in the order given, stir and bring the whole to a boil.
\nReduce heat and simmer for 1 to 1 1\/2 hours.
\nUsing a potato masher, mash some of the potatoes before serving.<\/p>\n
