Ingredients
Instructions
-
Start by preparing the vegetables. Peel and dice the potatoes, chop the onion, slice the carrots, and chop the celery. Mince the garlic as well.
-
Turn your Instant Pot to the sauté function and add a drizzle of olive oil. Sauté the onion, carrots, celery, and garlic for a few minutes until they start to soften.
-
Add the diced potatoes to the pot along with the chicken or vegetable broth. Season with dried thyme, dried rosemary, salt, and pepper. Give everything a good stir.
-
Secure the lid on the Instant Pot and set the valve to the sealing position. Cook on high pressure for 8 minutes.
-
Once the cooking time is up, allow for a natural pressure release for 5 minutes before quick releasing the remaining pressure.
-
Carefully open the lid and use an immersion blender to blend the soup until smooth and creamy. If you prefer a chunkier soup, you can leave some potato pieces whole.
-
Stir in the milk and heavy cream, adjusting the consistency to your liking. Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed.
-
Ladle the hot soup into bowls and garnish with chopped fresh parsley and a sprinkle of grated cheddar cheese.
-
Serve the Instant Pot Potato Soup hot, alongside some crusty bread for a complete and satisfying meal.
