Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 medium onion, roughly chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 roasted red peppers, jarred or freshly roasted
- 3 medium potatoes, peeled and diced
- 4 cups vegetable broth
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- Salt and ground black pepper, to taste
- A splash of non-dairy milk or cashew cream (optional, for added richness)
Instructions
Begin by heating the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and garlic, and sauté until they become soft and translucent, roughly 5 minutes. Next, toss in your roasted red peppers and diced potatoes, stirring to coat them in the savory onion-garlic mixture.
Pour in the vegetable broth and add the smoked paprika. Bring the soup to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat and let it simmer for about 15 to 20 minutes, or until the potatoes are fork-tender. Keep an eye on your pot, stirring occasionally to ensure nothing sticks to the bottom.
Once everything is cooked through, remove the pot from heat. Carefully blend the soup using an immersion blender or a regular blender, in batches, until it reaches a silky texture. If you’d like an extra creamy consistency, stir in a little non-dairy milk or cashew cream at this point. Season with salt and pepper, adjusting the flavors to your liking.
Ladle your Silky Vegan Roasted Pepper & Potato Bisque into bowls and serve with crusty bread or a sprinkle of fresh herbs. This is the moment where you savor all the comforting goodness blended into a single spoonful.
Whether you’re seeking a nourishing lunch, warming up a chilly evening, or introducing more plant-based dishes into your diet, this bisque is a winner. The roasted peppers add a touch of smoky sweetness, while the potatoes provide that wintery comfort we all crave. It can easily be made gluten-free by checking your broth’s ingredients, and you could also add a dash of chili flakes or diced jalapeños for some extra heat. Adjust it to your own taste, and you’ll have a bowl of blissful soup ready for any occasion.
