Ingredients
  

  • 500 g potatoes peeled and cut into pieces
  • 1 onion peeled and cut into pieces
  • 1 head of garlic
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 600 ml vegetable broth
  • 150 ml heavy cream
  • salt to taste
  • pepper to taste
  • nutmeg to taste
  • chili flakes to taste
  • 1 baguette sliced and toasted
  • 100 g bacon sliced
  • 1 tbsp parsley chopped
  • 2 tbsp honey

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 220°C (430°F).
  • Place the potato and onion pieces on a baking sheet. Cut the top off the head of garlic, drizzle everything with olive oil, and sprinkle with salt.
  • Bake for 35 minutes until the potatoes are tender and the garlic is soft.
  • In a blender, add the roasted potatoes, onion, squeezed roasted garlic cloves, vegetable broth, heavy cream, salt, pepper, chili flakes, and nutmeg. Blend until smooth.
  • Cut the baguette into slices, drizzle with olive oil, and toast in a pan until golden and crispy.
  • In another pan, cook the bacon on high heat for about 3 minutes until crispy. Remove and drain on paper towels.
  • Transfer the soup to bowls, top with crispy bacon bits, chopped parsley, and a drizzle of honey. Serve with toasted baguette slices.

Notes

  1. If you prefer a thinner soup, add more vegetable broth until you reach the desired consistency. For a thicker soup, reduce the amount of broth or add more potatoes.
  2. Ensure the garlic is properly roasted by wrapping it tightly in foil and checking for softness after baking. Properly roasted garlic should be caramelized and easily squeezed out of its skins.
  3. Feel free to get creative with the toppings! Try adding shredded cheese, a dollop of sour cream, or even some chopped green onions for extra flavor and texture.
