Instructions
Preparation
In a large pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic, cooking until fragrant.
Stir in the carrots and potatoes, sautéing for about 5 minutes.
Sprinkle the flour over the vegetables and stir until everything is well-coated.
Slowly whisk in the vegetable broth, stirring continuously to avoid lumps.
Add thyme, rosemary, salt, and pepper to taste. Allow the mixture to simmer for 15 minutes or until the potatoes are tender.
Stir in the broccoli, peas, and corn; let it simmer for an additional 5–7 minutes until the vegetables are just tender.
Pour in the milk and cream, stirring until the soup becomes creamy and thickened. Adjust the seasoning as needed.
Garnish with fresh parsley and serve hot.
Notes
For extra creaminess, blend a portion of the soup and return it to the pot. Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days or frozen for up to three months.
