Ingredients

12–14 cloves garlic, peeled

60 g olive oil

Sea salt

500 g potatoes, peeled and cubed

Water, for boiling

250–350 ml vegetable broth

60 ml soy or oat cream

3 tablespoons nutritional yeast

1 teaspoon onion powder (optional)

Black pepper, to taste

2–4 slices day-old bread (for croutons, optional)

Olive oil (for croutons, optional; use reserved garlic oil if desired)

Black pepper (for croutons)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F). Place peeled garlic cloves in a small baking dish, drizzle with olive oil, and sprinkle with sea salt. Roast for 15–20 minutes, until golden and soft. Let cool slightly.
  2. While garlic roasts, cube the potatoes and boil in salted water over medium heat until tender. Drain well.
  3. In a blender, combine boiled potatoes, roasted garlic (without oil), vegetable broth, soy or oat cream, nutritional yeast, and onion powder (if using). Add black pepper to taste and blend until smooth. Adjust thickness with more broth as needed.
  4. To make croutons (optional), preheat oven to 180°C (350°F). Cut bread into cubes, toss with olive oil and black pepper, and spread on a baking tray. Bake for 10 minutes or until golden and crispy.
  5. Serve soup hot. Drizzle with soy cream or reserved garlic oil and top with homemade croutons if desired.

Notes

  • Add fresh herbs like thyme, rosemary, or parsley for extra flavor.
  • Stir in smoked paprika or liquid smoke for a smoky variation.
  • Blend in cooked veggies like cauliflower or carrots for added nutrition.
  • Swap soy/oat cream with coconut, almond, or cashew cream.
  • Top with roasted chickpeas, mushrooms, or chili flakes for garnish.
  • Make it oil-free by roasting garlic in broth and omitting oil from croutons.
