Follow The Directions

01

Step
2 mins

In a large soup pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the celery, carrot, onion, jalapeño, and garlic. Sauté until the onion becomes translucent and fragrant (approximately 5 minutes).

02

Step
5 mins

Add the cubed potatoes to the pot, then pour in enough water to completely cover the vegetables. Stir in the beef bouillon and bring the mixture to a rolling boil (approximately 5 minutes).

03

Step
2 mins

Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer gently until the potatoes and carrots are tender and easily pierced with a fork (approximately 40 minutes).

04

Step
5 mins

Remove the pot from the heat. Using an immersion blender, carefully purée the soup until it reaches a smooth and creamy consistency.

05

Step
35 mins

Return the pot to medium heat. Add the chopped asparagus and bring the soup back to a gentle simmer. Cook until the asparagus is tender-crisp, retaining a slight bite (approximately 5 minutes).

06

Step
5 mins

Season the soup with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Adjust seasonings as needed.

For a vegetarian option, substitute vegetable bouillon for the beef bouillon.
If you prefer a smoother soup, peel the potatoes before cubing them.
Garnish with a swirl of cream or a sprinkle of fresh herbs, such as parsley or chives, for an extra touch of elegance.
